where are focus controls?

I successfully connected my Optec TCFs and ZWO ASI290MC OSC camera in SharpCap 4, latest version. I can change the focus using other software, running at the same time, but I cannot see where to change the focus in SharpCap! I see references to " in the camera control panel" but I don't see anything related to the focuser there. I tried the autofocus (scan focus) demo and that worked well, except I could not move the focuser back to the best position. Do I need the Pro version to see the focuser controls?

Hi,

the focus controls are in a group called 'Scope Controls' in the control panel on the right - this may initially be collapsed - click anywhere on the title of the group to swap it between collapsed and expanded state.

hope this helps,

Robin

Indeed, that is where the focus controls are! Thank you. I just tested it and my TCF is back in action.
