Rich,
I'm pasting in your previous requests for historical purposes:
17.5 dob w/Sky Commander Ipad mini. SkySafari5 pro 1.When in push-to mode the arrow is hard to find sometimes, it disappears behind the scope control popup window, it disappears when the object hits the screen and won't reappear. It would be great if the arrow was larger and stayed on screen until the object was centered. Help? 2. If I pinch the screen it toggles the lock/unlock. Any way to change this? 3.Program crashes randomly and appears to change settings when it's restarted. 4.I align on Polaris and Arcturus w/Sky Commander, then try and realign close to Pluto and get the too far from position "Command Error". Any chance there will be a change to allow sloppier realignment?
1. We still intend to improve the behavior of the arrow that guides you fro Push To. We have been almost totally focused on getting SkySafari 6 out on iOS, Mac and Android this past year. This has left us little time to deal with other enhancements. I suspect something will happen on this front in the next several months.
2. Pinch zoom does *not* Unlock the scope from being centered on-screen. Only dragging does this. However, I agree it is easy to accidentally do a small drag when doing pinch zoom. Possibly we could define an amount and say you have to drag at least X pixels before it will unlock. In the meantime I recommend you use the +/- buttons to change FOV.
4. No, it is unlikely we will allow a sloppier alignment. The alignment model will not be useful if we allow more sloppiness. Are you sure you selected Pluto before trying to align? A common user error is to push the scope to the new object and tapping Align without actually selecting the new object.
