Created attachment 156079 [details] telescopius grid setup and kstars display after import SUMMARY *** Hi all, not a crash, just a mix up in importing mosaic grid from telescopius *** just import this mosaic grid from telescopius : Pane, RA, DEC, Position Angle (East), Pane width (arcmins), Pane height (arcmins), Overlap, Row, Column Center, 06hr 31' 36", 05º 01' 12", 0.00, 82.20, 55.80, 10%, -, - Pane 1, 06hr 31' 36", 05º 26' 19", 0.00, 82.20, 55.80, 10%, 1, 1 Pane 2, 06hr 31' 36", 04º 36' 05", 0.00, 82.20, 55.80, 10%, 2, 1 included screenshots of both the telescopius interface and the kstars display
The field of view is different. Telescopius: 1.37 x 1.77 degrees Ekos: 2.6 x 0.9 degrees Probably equipment is different.
I ran into the same problem yesterday when trying to setup a mosaic for California Nebula (NGC1499) Telescopius CSV (2W x 1H tile): Pane, RA, DEC, Position Angle (East), Pane width (arcmins), Pane height (arcmins), Overlap, Row, Column Center, 04hr 01' 17", 36º 17' 44", 0.00, 100.80, 100.80, 10%, -, - Pane 1, 04hr 05' 02", 36º 17' 31", 0.56, 100.80, 100.80, 10%, 1, 1 Pane 2, 03hr 57' 31", 36º 17' 31", -0.56, 100.80, 100.80, 10%, 1, 2 Imported into Kstars Mosaic Planner (MP) after I initialized mosaic size to 1x1. First indication that something's wrong after import is MP says the size is now 1W x 2H. The generated ESL file has a fixed RA with changing DEC for each tile: <Name>CalifNebulaNGC1499_AT80.8_OeNh_mosaic-Part_1</Name> <Group></Group> <Coordinates> <J2000RA>4.02139</J2000RA> <J2000DE>37.055</J2000DE> </Coordinates> <Name>CalifNebulaNGC1499_AT80.8_OeNh_mosaic-Part_2</Name> <Group></Group> <Coordinates> <J2000RA>4.02139</J2000RA> <J2000DE>35.5361</J2000DE> </Coordinates> But the Telescopius CSV is constant (almost) DEC with varying RA. Tile sizes do match up between Telescopius & MP but of course width and height are swapped: <Overlap>10</Overlap> <CenterRA>4.02139</CenterRA> <CenterDE>36.2956</CenterDE> <GridW>1</GridW> <GridH>2</GridH> <FOVW>101.25</FOVW> <FOVH>192.38</FOVH> <CameraFOVW>101.25</CameraFOVW> <CameraFOVH>101.25</CameraFOVH> I ran the planned mosaic and it indeed produced a 1W x 2H image, 90 degrees off from what I planned with Telescopius. Workaround is to manually enter in the center coordinates (from Telescopius) and mosaic size.
