OS:                Linux

Sky calendar's GUI is difficult to use. Problems which I have seen

1. It's not obvious that "Update" button will bring trails of planets. I found out that only accidentally (I read sources)

2. When all planets are drawn plot becomes huge mess of lines and labels. Probably no more than 2 or 3 planets could be drawn at the same time if we want plot to be useful. This means that user must have ability to choose planets he interested in.



Reproducible: Didn't try

Second point is fixed. Thanks Jerome!

First point is still here but it's difficult to do anything while updates are so slow. I'll mark bug as blocked by #267101

Since bug #267101 is fixed now, I consider this bug is also fixed.
