I see that stars to 7th mag are included in the full catalog. What name or id do I use to reference them? I searched the manual and help, but don't see the answer.

Thank you, I will try that as soon as we get some clear weather.

We are likely trying to use this feature in a way not originally intended. Here are the specifics of last night's efforts: Both SharpCap Pro 3.2.6480 and the Beta versi...

I had SharpCap able to do plate solving using ANSVR or Astrotortilla on a Laptop (Dell XPS 13 running Win 10) that has been damaged and needs to be replaced. I tried to move everything to another laptop (also a Dell XPS 13 running Win 10) but things are not working. The AstroTortilla seems to be cor...
