SUMMARY It would be fantastic to be able to import your own dark library. My use case, which is a common one: You've created a dark library once a year for your CCD/CMOS camera and would like to import it into kstars. Currently there is no way to directly import via the user interface. WORKAROUND I have written a script that will copy my dark frames to "~/Library/Application Support/kstars/darks" and update the SQLite db "userdb.sqlite" with the appropriate data. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create your own dark calibration frames ahead of time 2. Open Preference > Ekos > Dark Library Tab OBSERVED RESULT - No way to import from here EXPECTED RESULT - Would be great to have an import option SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS macOS: 10.15.6 kstars: 3.4.3
I completely agree. Also, the dark library itself can perhaps make a "master dark" and not single frames as it is now. However, we need someone to work on this. How is your C++? :D
Hi Jasem, I don't have enough C++ knowledge to implement something like this. Maybe its time for me to learn!
