Hello Dr Glover,
I am using SharpCap version 4.1.11804.0 - 2/19/2024.
Zwo ASI533 mono.
Windows 11
When I capture flats and check to also capture darkflats.
The routine does not prompt to cover the OTA to take darks.
It just jumps right to saving subs as darkflats without covering the OTA.

Re: The Flats Capture routine...
Hi Mark,
if you have a filter wheel connected and the 'Filter to use for dark captures' in the SharpCap hardware settings has been configured then SharpCap will automatically switch to that filter and capture the dark flats that way, without prompting. I think that is the most likely cause. If you don't want that to happen, change the 'filter to use for dark captures' back to 'None Selected' in the filter wheel part of the hardware settings.
cheers,
Robin
