Do any existing Skysafari versions have ability to center the screen with a single tap to the point on screen you want to be at?    

Example running Skysafari5pro on Android tablet , or IOS I just drag a finger to move screen.  In OSX I have to click and drag ( or arrow keys) That is a little tough have limitations with my hands fingers.   Because of this I use the OSX version the least.           I've a feature in another software that where you click ,tap on a point on screen and the screen centers there. 

Any setting in Skysafari to do this?

  In the iOS/Android versions you can click on an object then choose Selection > Center Object.

  But, this requires choosing an object.

  Alternatively, you can center with precision via Settings > Coordinates > Chart Center Coordinates

  If I understand correct there is no SSpro version does what I describe.  Click on a point, chart centers on.

  Thanks for your response.

  Correct.  An object must always be selected.

  I'll add, if you modify your toolbar via the settings, like I've done, you can add 'Center' to the toolbar to save a click.
