Hi Robin, The layout of the search screen actually misled me in the very first instance. It was not obvious to me at the time that a search of 'the catalogue' was accessing a limited list. In fact, typing in 'N' (as the start of NGC) or the first digit (for an NGC target) in the search box immediate...

Gaps in the NGC Catalogue for the GoTO Catalogue Target/Co-ordinates tool
I have become a fan of the GoTo Catalogue Target/Co-ordinates tool. It is simple, quick, accurate and reliable. However, there seem to be many gaps in the NGC Catalogue within this tool. For example, the following are some of the DSO’s with NGC designations that I have not been able to find in the c...

Re: Can I turn off or dim the message banner?
I too, find the message banner very bright. A dimmer banner would certainly be more comfortable.
