Can I synchronize windows?

If I open two windows simultaneously and connect Starry Night to my telescope, will Starry Night keep both screens synchronized?  I'm interested in having one screen show a wider view, perhaps at about the size of my finder, and a second window showing the eyepiece view.  I'm on a Mac OS 10.7.1.

 

I'm using ST Pro Plus.

    Hello Jeff,

    Unfortunately, you cannot do this with regular versions of Starry Night. You could save a view in one window and open it in the other with the regular version but there is no real time "connection".

    That being said, you could get closer to what you are trying to achieve with Starry Night Podium although this package has been conceived as a presentation tool ( http://store.simulationcurriculum.com/products/starrynightpodium ).

    Hi Jeff, 

     

    Please see page 141 is the User's Guide for more information:
