I want to make an observing list of all the planetary nebulae I've observed since using SkyTools. I know how to go to Log Browser and then to the "Search"...
Hi Greg, Here's a quick one... When I import observings lists from the Data Manager tool/box, some of the lists I have imported stil lack the red checkmark...
Why didn't I think of that? I use the feature all the time, but just didn't think of it. Well, hit me over the head with a telescope. Kent Blackwell ... From:...
"Well, hit me over the head with a telescope." Only if it's a department store scope. I wouldn't want to damage a quality scope! ;) Fred Kiesche (FPK3) My...

Hi John, ... Yeah, it looks like that's what's happening. Subtle, isn't it? Thanks for letting me know. ... At the moment I'm not planning any more updates...
Hi John, ... Are you sure they were really imported? The only thing I can think of is that the name of the list may have changed (perhaps subtly). SkyTools...
Maybe I missed a previous post on this subject but is there a way to do a fast search on an observing list object? For example the "Hartung" list is over 1000...
Hi Dennis, ... The reason there isn't a search capability for the observing lists is that one isn't really necessary--all you really need is the object in ...
Greg, I had the same problem. I would click to download some of the same lists, and they would not download or indicate a red check mark. The download did...
Hi Greg, Thanks for getting back to me. I was just looking for a quick way to jump to an object in a long list so it would be highlighted and then I could...
Hi Greg, Well I appreciate all your efforts going into ST3 and I don't want to slow that effort. But I am very close to releasing this calendar utility and it...
Hi Dennis, ... But it isn't, unless I'm missing something. It seems to me insignificantly more convenient to click the Object Requestor button, type the...
Hi Greg, The object requestor button seems like a simple way to go. I was thinking of a situation at home (not out in the field) for where you have a long...
Hi again Greg, Sorry to be so slow-witted today. Long night! The real advantage of a fast object search in the long observing list would be to quickly see if...
... To play devil's advocate, that's a fair number of clicks (although there might realistically not be a shorter route). For one thing, you're having to...
Well said Len! Must be your Unix Server manager background! What I pictured was a little drop-down window that allowed you to search your long observing list...

Hi everbody I dont know if this will work for you but what I do whn try to find some thing in a long observing list is just click the head button over RA and...
Hi Mr Crinklaw I hope you are still doing good and it looks like it since I see your on the board reglarly now. Thank you for ansering my question. I sure hope...
Hi Dennis, ... To that end SkyTools 3 will offer a tab on the Object Info dialog that will list all the observing lists the object is found in. Clear skies, ...
Hi David, ... Yes--while the list is updating a little red "stop sign" appears to the right of the observing list selection. Just click it to abort. Clear...
Click the red stop sign to the right of the observing list drop-down. Would be nice if there was a keyboard shortcut for this also, eg. Esc. ... a ... before...
Can anyone tell me if (and how) SkyTools can printout a set of charts comparable in format / content to a popular sky atlas, eg, Sky Atlas 2000, Uranometria...
... Here's what I did... I am currently observing the Herschel 400, so I printed out a chart of each (available) H400 object for each of the four seasons......
