SUMMARY

Hi Jasem

It would be great to load and save the align points automatically - maybe add a button to clear on the align tab as well?  Clear would delete all points and save the empty file.

Just a thought as I would expect the driver to behave this way (as in EQMOD for example).

Great product I am enjoying using it immensely.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start KStars and connet to INDI with eqmod driver
2. Alignment points are gone from previous session
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT

Have to realign every time you connect

EXPECTED RESULT

Keep the align points

So this is not a KStars bug per se, it's INDI. At any rate, if you go to INDI Control Panel, and save the points, and disconnect/reconnect, can't you load them again from the INDI Control Panel?

Comment 2 Iain 2020-04-14 17:19:08 UTC

Yes but that would be good to automate, no?

Keep up the great work!
