Hello
I have Sharp Cap version 3.2.6383 and I am using ZWO ASI294MC Pro camera. It has all been working great but last week I noticed the capture status bar at the bottom of the screen disappeared along with the timer for the frame being taken. Is there setting or something I changed?

Hi John
Check your exposure time. For very short exposures the progress bar goes away.

Re: Capture status bar missing
Hi,
Chris is correct that the frame progress only shows when the exposure is longer than one second.
The capture progress only shows when the capture has been set up to run a particular number of frames or for a particular time. If you choose to start capture and choose the option to let it run for an unlimited number of frames then the progress does not show up (because SharpCap has no idea of how long the final capture should be).
Cheers, Robin
