Description

back in 0.24 there existed a bug feature: click on pe/ap nodes toggled sticky details. This was pretty useful to fine tune course corections while aiming for another moon/planet.
You know the workflow picture? I really miss this, because i get used to be able to see exact pe in next soi while fire my engine. Now i have to guess, or adjust mouse to keep hovering the pe node. This was very useful for approaching another ship too.

It still works, it's just sometimes annoylingly tricky to achieve. You click on Ap/Pe and its values stay displayed. You just need to avoid clicking on other things nearby, particularly clicking on the orbit line because that will pop up a menu and in most cases that menu will block the highlight of the Ap/Pe marker.

I wish such highlight was possible for other markers, especially closest approach or An/Dn.

"closest approach" is what i meant. thanks for your advice

I don't think anything but Ap/Pe was ever highlightable but it would be very useful if other markers were too.
