This is a strange issue which means it probably has a simple solutions. Hopefully, it is something that I have configured incorrectly. My exact lon, lat are: ...
Hi Kevin, This one had me going but I think I figured it out. At first I thought that maybe you had switched the lat and lon or something, but I couldn't come...
I used the fix you suggested and that did the trick. I believe that I know what happened here. The particular location in question was initially entered with...
The option to add clickable images to the info screen doesn't work any more. When I download a DSS image, it is shown on screen, but its name doesn't appear in...
Hi, I want to precess B1950 coordinates to J2000. These 1950 coordinates are often found in old journals. Where do I input 1950 coordinates in SkyTools 2?...
Hi Jan, I apologize for the delay in responding; I took a couple days off. ... The only thing I can think of that might cause this would be a bug I fixed in...
Hi Roger, ... I'm sorry to say that the phrase "you may always append one of these standard epoch identifiers" was written prior to my adding the J2000 ...
Greg, No problem to take a couple of days off, of course. I have no problem waiting. As far as I tried, it only is the case with planetary's. The globulars and...
Hi Jan, ... If possible please send me the contents of your "user\images\planetary nebulae", typically found at "C:\Program Files\CapellaSoft\SkyTools ...
Hi Greg, I've got a list of stars with photometric data from Astronomy and Astrophysics journal. The coordinates are given for epoch 1950. My problem is that I...
Hi Roger, ... And there aren't any useful designations to use as a cross reference? Shoot. I've been trying to think of a way to do this using SkyTools, but...
Hi Greg, you're really kind trying to solve everybodys problem! There were no useful designations in the articles. But I was able to find an online internet...
Greetings: Roger, could you either post that site (the one that allowed you to convert the coordinates) or put it in the list of links on the group site? Might...
I have a number of SkyTools update files on my laptop taking up space. Since I have a small hard disk, I would like to delete these. I think I can do this OK...
Greg, A member of my local astronomy club was challenging our club members with some "tight" double stars. Among them was 37 Pegasi (Struve 2912). He further...
Hi, ... Well, to tell you the truth I feel guilty because the ability to enter target coordinates was added sort of half-assed. Nobody had even asked for it...
Hi Jim, ... Yes, you may delete any of the "skytoolsxx.exe" update files. Clear skies, Greg -- Greg Crinklaw Astronomical Software Developer Cloudcroft, New...
Hi Louis, Coincidentally, I was just working on the binary star orbit database the other day (using the 6th catalog as a catalog source), so it was easy for me...
My "Add or Remove Programs" control panel shows the following installed... SkyTools 2, 2.1, 2.1 beta, 2.1a, 2.1b, 2.1c, 2.1d, 2.2 and 2.2a. Can i uninstall the...
Hi Florian, ... Under no circumstances should you uninstall previous versions using add/remove programs. Doing so can lead to confusion for the installer and...
... Thanks, Greg, for the quick response. I assume the updated catalog data will be in the next update of ST2? ... appear ... I don't yet know the answer to...
Greg, In the "Log Browser" dialog, I would like to see the dates in chronological order instead of alphabetic. Sorting would be an extra bonus. Perhaps you...
I was messing around with observing lists this morning and i noticed i had an "Asteroids" list, a "Current Minor Planets" lists, and a "Sun, Moon Planets"...
