Hi there,

I have probably one of the most basic questions, though.. I could not find the solution yet.

How do I change the local horizont of my home location? It shows high mountains, but where I live it's all flat :)

thank you!

Martin.

  Hm... thank you! But:

  "Unable to assign a custom panorama to your current location. Panoramas can only be assigned to named locations. To name your current location you can do so from the Longitude/Latitude tab of the View From dialog."

  I do have a named default / Home location. I see the name of my home town.

  Update: I tried to save my location / default / home via lat. / long.. I also clicked "Save as new observation site".

  Still the same: "Unable to assign a custom panorama to your current location. Panoramas can only be assigned to named locations. To name your current location you can do so from the Longitude/Latitude tab of the View From dialog."

  You need to provide screenshots of all your settings - what locations are listed, selected, what you are choosing, and the error message that follows.

  I can't figure it out otherwise.

  Thanks!

  Ok.

  What exactly is a "named location"? I do see the name of my home city in the list of "my Locations"

  Martin, there are two videos that might help you, since there are two distinct ways to change the horizon file:

  Did that help?
