I have some problem with a Touptek IMX585 camera, using focus module, when I use sub frame, and press to select a star, I never see a star in the box, maybe the image is mirrored and so when I press the sub region is selected wrong?
The image might / might not be mirrored but that shouldn't really matter, as all images should be the same. I would make sure the "box" size is as large as possible (from memory that's 256 or 512) then select a frame which will appear in the fitsviewer in the Focus tab. Then click on a star and you should see the box around the star you selected. Then when you run Autofocus it should pick up that star. The mount will need to be tracking whilst Autofocus runs otherwise the star will move off the sensor. If you have a separate guide scope then you can guide whilst Autofocus is running.
@@johneevans1 When I press on a star (perfectly centered in my eyes), the frame that is displayed next, never contains a star. (And I have done many tests) Perhaps from the programmer's point of view, the coordinates passed to “select box” are not oriented the same way the image is displayed? If I press HiPS overlay, the images are mirrored horizontally. So maybe when I press right I actually display the left portion of the image and that's why I don't see the star I selected?
Hi @ciskje71 Can you send me a focus frame and I'll try it with your data. It would probably be easier if you open a thread on indilib.org and post it there.
This looks like a good layout. "Hitting the button" on OSX to reveal "lost windows" is a good tip
Hi John, I presume this UI reorganisation will be incorporated in the next KStars ‘stable’ version 3.6.9?
Yes, that’s right. It’s currently merged into the current code base so anyone taking daily builds or building bleeding edge themselves can try it.
