Hi,

there should be hover tooltips if you move the mouse over those buttons that give a more detailed explanation of what they do. Mostly they are to do with working with the 'TargetPosition' of the ASCOM driver, which can be useful because other applications like a planetarium application can also read/set the target position.

'Imp' is Impostato cut off to 3 letters because the button is small. That's supposed to be a translation of 'Set' in English. This button sets the target position of the ASCOM driver to the current position.

cheers,

Robin

PS.

I don't understand why the buttons are cut off on the left hand side. The text for the co-ordinate readouts should shrink to limit the space used, rather than cut off the buttons. Do you have your Windows fonts sizing set to something unusual?

thanks,

Robin

Hi

>>I don't understand why the buttons are cut off on the left hand side.

The exact same thing happens to me (Win10 Pro) set to 100%. I think it's due to the non-standard monitor size.

I'll add another problem while I'm at it...
If the livestacking window is set to Float (mandatory if I use a sequence), I can't get it back to how it was before.

Hi Carlo,

the second one is resolved in SharpCap 4.2, as I have added a new 'Reset Layout' entry into the 'View' menu which puts everything back how it was when the application started. You should also be able to put it back from floating in 4.1 - at the top right of the floating window you have the close box, the maximise box and a little down arrow thing. Click the down arrow thing and choose 'Dock'.

Odd about the mount co-ordinates - those have been scaling to width (or should have been scaling) for a long time, and I have never seen them cut off as shown in the screenshot above. I will have a poke around to see if I can see any potential causes.

cheers,

Robin

In questo momento ci sono i caratteri di Win al 125% forse è quello...., basta allargare la finestra dei controlli e i pulsnti si vedono per intero..., mi accorgo adesso che passandoci sopra con il puntatore si vedono le spiegazioni......
Chiedo scusa per l'allegato cosi grande non sono riuscito a fare meglio....
Grazie Robin grazie Carlo

Hi,

I worked out why the control buttons get cut off - when you use a language other than English, some buttons are fixed width (and the text gets cut off if it is longer than will fit). Other buttons grow to try to fit the translated text, and in the case of the mount UI, that pushes the direction buttons too far to the left. I have fixed this issue for SharpCap 4.2 (well, stopped the buttons from growing, so the text will be cut off if too long, but then the tooltip lets you see what the button does).

cheers,

Robin

[Edited - I wrote that it was fixed for 4.1, but I meant to write 4.2 - this will not be fixed in 4.1]

Ok grazie hai fatto un buon lavoro...... i tooltip si vedono bene ache con la finestra comandi stretta...., però ancora non ho capito come fare per mettere allegati più piccoli, in passato ci sono riuscito...., con strumento di cattura di Win. non si riesce ad allegarli dice troppo grandi..., allora faccio una foto con il cell poi la riduco la porto sul desktop e la allego, ma cosi sono proprio orrendi....

Hi,

I think windows snipping tool often saves as automatically PNG, which gives bigger files. If you re-save the file from snipping tool and choose JPG format, the file will be much smaller.
