Polar Alignment Tool (3.5.5. Stable)

Thanks to all who worked on 3.5.5. Its generally working pretty well for me.

I've noticed that the East/West and number of degrees to slew controls on the polar alignment tool have been greyed out in version 3.5.5 so I'm forced to PA west at 30 degrees. Is there a way to get these controls activated? (or a reason they have been deactivated?)

Also, when PA'ing the helpful yellow circle that surrounds the selected star that I'm moving around to PA, seems to jump to different stars. Sometimes it jumps to a star off screen. Sometimes it "refinds" the original star and sometimes not. This obviously makes PA a bit more tricky. Moving the mount more slowly does help but doesn't always fix the problem. Sometimes it jumps stars when I'm not moving the mount. I don't know if this has changed in 3.5.5 or not but it was noticeably worse for me recently (but could be other factors). Anyway, any recommendations to improve this?
