Dear Astroart Team,

I know you are about to release a new Service Pack (or, at least, that is my understanding). I have a simple feature request related to the list of information shown in the "Statistics Window". Once the astrometry information was added to an image I'd like to have the RA and DEC of the center of the image available in the statistic window. Usually I'm manually move the cursor at the center of the image to have that information, is it possible to add this feature in the next SP?

Thank you and Regards

Max

Max, maybe this will work for you, once you solve the image if you run this script you will see the center Ra and Dec in the fits header.

Ra=Image.Ra
Dec=Image.Dec
Image.SetKey("Cent.Ra",Ra )
Image.SetKey("Cent.dec",Dec)

Hi Max,
we are finishing the tests for SP2 (it will be released on August 1st) but there is still time for this usuful feature. Maybe we'll add a field for telescope position too, as read from the FITS header.
Another last minute feature was the APASS catalog (as csv files) and APASS magnitudes in UCAC4.
Clear skies,

Fabio.
