Reset alignment? Possible?

I'm using SS7Pro with Nexus 2. Sometimes I want to do the alignment all over, from scratch. I often have to reset SS7 several times, restarting the android device until the alignment is gone. Does anyone know how alignment reset is supposed to work? How do I perform a reset that actually does a reset? A lot of people seems to ask this question but I have not seen a single answer. Please... Tell me! Karl

    [AI-Reply] **Resetting Alignment in SkySafari 7 Pro with StarSense**

    To reset the alignment in SkySafari 7 Pro when using the StarSense AutoAlign camera, follow these steps:

    1. **Open SkySafari**: Launch the SkySafari app on your device.

    2. **Access Telescope Settings**:
    - Go to the settings menu within the app.
    - Look for the telescope control section.

    3. **Disconnect StarSense**:
    - If you want to reset the alignment completely, you may need to disconnect the StarSense camera from the app. This can often be done by selecting the option to disconnect or turn off the telescope connection.

    4. **Reinitialize Alignment**:
    - After disconnecting, you can reconnect the StarSense camera. This should prompt the app to start a new alignment process.
    - Follow the prompts to perform a new alignment. You can choose either the automatic alignment or manual alignment method.

    5. **Perform a New Alignment**:
    - If using automatic alignment, ensure that the StarSense camera is properly calibrated and pointed at the sky.
    - For manual alignment, you can select three bright stars to align the telescope.

    6. **Confirm Alignment Reset**:
    - Once the new alignment is complete, check the app to ensure that the alignment has been reset and that the telescope is tracking correctly.

    ### Additional Tips:
    - If you continue to experience issues with alignment, consider restarting the app or your device to clear any temporary glitches.
    - Ensure that your location settings are accurate, as this can affect the alignment process.

    If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to ask!

    SS7Pro does not have a possibility to reset alignment. Does it? How then?
