Hi Greg I just noticed that if I highlight an entry in my observing list, that a, o, n will bring up different charts. Cool .. I didn't know that, and that...
... I'm glad it was for someone... :-) I had plans to drive out of town to a reasonably dark site until cirrus started showing up mid afternoon, then that...

Hi all, I've dedicated my web site this month to articles about observing mars and its moons. Mars will be about 80% as large as seen in 2003, but that's...
... I forgot to mention the moons, which are plotted on the charts. In addition, the ability to compute satellite elongation times from the Current and...

Hi Greg, I have used SkyTools for a couple of years now. I have entered viewing sites, Various Telescopes, Eyepieces etc. Is there a way to set the entire...
I have an idea for a new ST3 feature. For the Motion Trails add magnitude as a display option. Interesting to see how a comet, asteroid, or planet brightens...
How cool is that! Amazon carries it too, although $5.00 USD more. Steve _____ From: skytools@yahoogroups.com [mailto:skytools@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of...
... Hi John, You can get this when you use the Ephemerides, in what is probably a much more useful format for what you are suggesting. Adding too much info on...
Hi Thomas, Thanks for your reply; I think we are both on the same track, although you took it a level or two deeper! Maybe you are onto something that being...
HI I don't know if this is possible to do now, but I haven't seen it in options so I'll ask. I would like to see the eyepiece used printed in the eyepiece view...
I'm also working on the Herschel lists and wondering if, when it's completed, Can I print out a long of all the objects on that list and only the objects on...
Hi Thomas, ... Is it possible this is the first or last asteroid in your database? Let me know if you have any other problems. Thanks, Greg -- Greg Crinklaw ...
Hi Thomas, ... That's truly cool! As for S&T, this from the magazine that reviewed ST2 as an observation logging tool (as if anything else it did didn't...
Hi Ken, ... If you just wanted to reset one or two things I could tell you which files to delete (most will regenerate themselves with the buit-in defaults)....
Hi John, ... That's not a bad idea, particularly given that you can label other types of objects with magnitudes. I don't see what harm it would do if added ...
... I created a new list called "Herschel Completed." As I observe and log the Herschels I move them from the regular list to the completed list. [Non-text...
Hi John, ... Well, that's a screw up. I knew that Re, Rs etc. weren't clearly defined because people ask about them, but I didn't realize why. Oops! Adding...
Hi Phil, ... Coming in ST3, assuming I ever figure out why Saturn keeps crashing other parts of the program... grrrr... I hate that. Clear skies, Greg -- Greg...
Hi Bill, ... Open the Log Dialog. Click Print/Copy. Select the "All objects in" radio button and then select your Herschel 400 observing list to the right....
Hi Kent, ... ST2: from the simulation chart click on the telescope hypertext and select "Open Interactive Atlas". Going back takes more effort: click on the...
... One /really/ cool approach (IMO), although admittedly (much?) more coding, would be to provide a form where we could put intermixed static text and merge...
Oh goodie, goodie! If we could get data out in some delimited format, we could do all sorts of things with it! And it would be swell to be able to take in my...
... Thanks Greg, I have tried to delete certain files before and it seems some portions have a way of reappearing. I entered info in a helter skelter manner...
