Kill switch

#1

Post by Chris_h »

Can we please get a kill switch for the "simple sequence"? When I image the planets, I usually set it up to record say 50 runs. Not a problem if everything works out, but a pain in the hole if the clouds roll in after 10. If I click cancel, it will only cancel the current one, then automatically start the next one. So I have to click the cancel button 40 times!!!! This is REALLY annoying!

Thanks!

Hi,

if you don't have time to press the 'Cancel' button while waiting for the next in the sequence to run, then pressing and holding the <ESC> button will do the trick. See https://docs.sharpcap.co.uk/4.1/#!2!Stop%20Capture

cheers,

Robin
