Three Point Polar Alignment plugin looses setting for gain

Issue #989 resolved
Michael Ring created an issue

I am using Three Point Polar Alignment plugin 1.5.2.1 and NinaBeta004

This issue is always reproducible

I do manual Filter Changes and do Polar Alignment with no sight of Polaris. For that reason I sometimes need a little longer to get proper Alignment.

What I saw yesterday is that while running polar Alignment after a while my manual setting of using Gain of 400 is replaced by the default setting (90) that is configured for the camera. The exposure time is properly remembered in session but gain is not. It takes a few plate-solves (which often fail) until I see that the 400 is replaced with the default. My manual setting also does not seem to get saved in the profile.

I have workarrounded this issue by setting default gain of the camera to 400, but I am sure this setting will bite me in another place sooner or later.
