When in preferences of Format Explorer/XISF I adjust "Import FITS Header Keywords as Properties", on trying to open a XISF file I get the error messages "Invalid Image property identifier 'FITS:DATE-OBS': ...." and "Unable to open file: ....". PixInsight obviously refuses '-' as not allowed character. When I replace '-' by '_' in the file, everything is working as expected.

Hi Bernd,

Yes, this is a bug, thanks for discovering it. I'm going to fix it immediately. It will be fixed in the incoming version 1.8.5 of PixInsight.

The next version (well, actually, the current one in our open source repository) is much more tolerant to this kind of errors, which won't prevent loading a file.
