Dear Mr Crinklaw You probly know this but mare orientale on our moon can be seen best only when the moon libration turns it just right. It is kind of rare and...

The SkyTools 2.2c update fixes several bugs that have come to my attention. For a complete list of fixes please see the download page. For more information...
Hello, Gregg Everything worked as expected. Selected the <Check for Updates> button from the <SkyTools Configuration> panel http link appeared for 2.2c which...
Hello, David The way I set reminders for this type of event, is to create a new Appointment in my Outlook calendar, setting a reminder alarm for the day before...
Greg, This is probably OK, but I'll ask before I leap... I was backing up my SkyTools data and got the message "Error backing up Logs". I ran the backup again...
I installed the new version 2.2c and I found is no more possible to change the "observing site" in the "current events" mask, at least with my computer. Is a...
Hi, ... I've tracked it down to a line of code that was inexplicably deleted before release. Just one of those things, I guess. Sorry! See my next post for a...
Hi all, Somehow a line of code was deleted in the build just prior to the release of version 2.2c. The symptom is that you can no longer change the location...
Hi David, ... I do have plans along these lines for the future. At the very least there will be a way to add your own custom events in ST3. Having an ...
Is there a way to measure degrees and position angle from one object to another on a star chart in Sky Simulation? Many times it's good to know how far a star...
Hi Kent, ... Not at this time. I guess I was thinking that this sort of thing was best kept on the Interactive Atlas. By popular demand I will be adding the...
OK, thank you. The measurment tool in the Interactive Map works fine, but it is a slightly inconvenient while in the Sky Simulation chart. I'll look forward to...
Heya Greg, Kent, It might be very hand to have a angular distance scale on the printed charts. This way there's no guess work when you're in the field. It...
Hi Steve, ... You know, I intended to put an optional scale on the printed charts but never got around to it. Nobody complained so it just got dropped... I'll...
Hi all, I'm running ST 2 and I've accumulated lots and lots of observing lists that I developed for instruments I no longer use/have, such as 4"Andromeda, 4"...
Hi, ... There's no way to delete more than one at a time, but if you use the "Observing Lists" tab of the Data Manager you can delete them pretty quickly...
Greg, I have followed the thread here about the difference in the H400 list from the Astronomical League's list. I have in my ST list 398. I'm trying to find...
Hi, Yes -- this is exactly what I came up with (sorry if you didn't see my last post on the subject). This information has also been added to the description...
Greetings: I haven't done the latest update myself. Norton blew up again (third time in six months) and now won't even let me reinstall. So, it's time to find...
Greetings: Thanks to everyone who e-mailed me about firewalls and such. I'm back in business at home and furiously downloading V2.2c Mark 2 right now. ===== ...
Dear Mr Crinklaw and any body. I was trying to help a friend find where to look for comet macholz for the next few months. And print a chart for her. I know to...
... Jupiter ... Hi Tim, It is a cool video, but it is going backwards. I saw the real thing at it disappeared on the bright side and reappeared on the dark...
Doh! I made it with successive screen shots. I must have loaded them in reverse order. Thanks for the heads up! I will fix it tonight. Tim ... thing ... ...
