Add a Solar Tracking feature

Hi I do a lot of solar imaging along with stellar imaging. Right now, software can't handle solar tracking. Is it possible for Astro Art to do this by: 1) taking an image of the sun using the guider camera and reversing the image (i.e., make a negative) 2) have the user draw a rectangle around one o...

Hi

I keep getting the message "Cannot connect to camera" in Astro Art when I hook up my new ASI678MC camera.

Re: Strange Behavior with ZWO ASI294MM camera

Hi,

ZWO "just" (i.e., 10/8/2021) came out with a new ASCOM driver.

I installed it.

Everything works fine.

Thanks to all of you.

Re: Strange Behavior with ZWO ASI294MM camera

When I choose ASCOM, the only that shows up in the dropdown menu is "Camera V2 Simulator" and "simulator".

Re: Strange Behavior with ZWO ASI294MM camera

Hi

When I select ASCOM, none of my cameras show up in the list.

I do have the latest version of ASCOM and drivers.

BASIC Programming Language

Hi,

I have been writing a few scripts using the documentation in Astro Art.

When I do an Internet search on the BASIC programming language, I get a long list of different versions. It is very confusing.

Is there a single version that I should look at for reference?

Thank You!
