But find it I did, young Skywalker, and now it starts the way I like it to start. The dialog to save these settings was under the “Options” Menu, and I had to look around to find it. In addition to this, you can also set up you display to your preferences and save a “Default” setup, but I will tell you now that the process for doing this was not intuitive. You can have numerous favorites for different seasons or different kinds of observing routines.
You can save this as a “Favorite” view and pull it up whenever you choose.
You can tailor up a special display maybe for summer galaxies that has settings that provide you with the optimal settings for that kind of observing. You can include Constellation boundaries, Alt-az coordinates, RA and DEC lines, and just about anything else you choose. You can change the COLOR of almost anything. You can control virtually any aspect of the way the screens appear. It has scads of features that are VERY appealing to people that use Planetarium programs.Ĭontrols are numerous and useful.
#IMAGINOVA STARRY NIGHT PRO PRO#
As Simon would say about a good performance: “It’s very nice actually… I rather enjoyed it.” As it turns out Starry Night Pro is a reasonable Planetarium program. These apparently are two different things.įirst, the review of the Planetarium software that Imaginova Canada sells. Why do I want you to repeat that? I want you to repeat that because I am doing TWO reviews here… The first review is on the software that I purchased, and the second was on software that I WANTED to purchase.
