Basic operation of the stretch adjustments involves dragging the position of the three vertical dashed yellow lines using the mouse. (mini-histogram).
Sometimes a small position shift will give a strong effect, that's part of the fun of using Sharpcap for live stacking.
This has always been working fine for me.
A month ago I started running Sharpcap on a mini-PC (Beelink) fitted on the mount, and accessing it remotely from an indoor Windows PC, using the TeamViewer professional software for remote access. Very convenient, very stable.
One thing however turned up: since there is a small delay between mouse action on the in-home laptop and the returning image of the action (in the Beelink), it becomes kind of trial-and-error to be sure that the mouse pointer will activate the dragging of the vertical dashed lines or not.
Suggestion: give some visual indication that the mouse (after clicking it down) is actually 'connected' to the vertical dashed line. I'm thinking of changing the color of the vertical line to red (activation), or to display this tiny arrows that we see on a Windows PC when for instance changing the size of a window.
kind regards,
Ivo
