Hi Greg, Snip.... ... Do you mean by this that you might do something that is heuristic in nature? I understand your previous explanations which go to the...
Hi, ... In SkyTools images are attached directly to an object rather than via a log entry. Select the "Images" tab on the object information dialog for the...
Hi Mark, ... Not from the observing list, but from the Location tab of the Log Browser. ... Nope. The Log Browser can do this, but that won't really help you...
Hi Dick, ... What I had in mind was something akin to the way SIMBAD allows you to enter a catalog or author name and have it translated into the correct ...
Greg, Thanks for updating the Machholz finder chart on the Skyhound site. I realize i could make and print my own but yours is always just right. I print it...
I don't see the problem with less stringent formats (like "N" and "n" for NGC objects) in the quick search if SkyTools continue the search through all...
Hi Roger, ... But that's not the purpose of the Browse Objects list. Like I said, if we change something that basic we lose something else or end up with a ...
Do you mean only one image can be added per object? Or can multiple images be added per object? For example if I search on Jupiter and the select image, can...
Hi, ... You can associate as many images as you want with any object. And yes, you can scroll through the list of all the images that have been associated. ...

Greg, The log browser works, I had already figured that out and made it work, but it is kind of clumsy and a bit of a pain. What I have ended up doing was...
Hi Mark, You know, In ST2, I copied the Messier list to a Yet To Observe Messier list. Then, as I found objects, I deleted them from the YTOM list. It worked...
It may sound kind of stupid, but I hadn't thought of this. ... Messier ... list. It ... particular ... motivator as ... the ... mark ... marked ... observed ...
... on >a particular night, and I knew how many I had left. Very cool. A real >motivator as well. ... Thats a good idea. I set a check mark and create a log...
Speaking of the SkyHound observing list. I was using it tonight and was looking for the Cone Neb. So I right clicked to interactive atlas and zoomed out to 32...
Hi Joe, ... That's a really interesting one! I found that the Crab is properly identified until the magnitude limit becomes too bright for it to be drawn. So...
Hi Mark, I've got plans for much more capable observing list filtering based on log entries for ST3. That should solve your basic problem, but the idea of...
Greg, I'll admit that this would still be a really cool thing to be able to do, but given the absurdly obvious method of simply creating a new list of the...
Hi, What I'm thinking is along these lines: what if someone wanted to make an observing list based on all the binocular observations they've made so they could...
What good timing, Greg. I'm going to view the 2005 solar eclipse near Tahiti and would like suggestions of such southern objects not to be missed. I made a...
Let me correct one line in my post. I meant to say "Note that I HAVE seen the LMC.....", not "Note that I seen the LMC...." Sorry folk, I left the word "have"...
Greg, That would be a fantastic feature that I know I would use. It is hard to imagine much that would add to the capability of this program, but this kind of...
Hi, I have a refractor and use it with mirror star diagonal What is the correct left/right; up/down setting? Do I check mirror diagonal in the select...
All excellent ideas Greg! I can't wait to test them out! :-) Steve _____ From: Greg Crinklaw [mailto:crinklaws@...] Sent: Thursday, February 03, 2005...
This remindes me of an mp3 players. Windows media player plays songs along the same line. You rank them and then there are different categorys to play them....
Hi Kent, ... Well, I wish I could help. I really, really, really wish I could help! :-) I know we've got some SkyToolers from down under hanging about. Maybe...
Kent, I really wish I could go with you....Short of that, consider going over to the AMASTRO forum and do a search. Seems I recall a spirited discussion...
