First take an image, then select the star to focus on. A new image will be taken and the diffraction pattern will be analysed. Three lines will be displayed on the diffraction pattern showing how well the pattern is recognized and how good the image is in focus. When the pattern is not well recognized, the 'Num. of rows' parameter can be adjusted to improve recognition. The line with the circles at each end is a magnified indicator for the focus. The shorter the line, the better the image is in focus.</para> + </listitem> + </itemizedlist> </listitem> </itemizedlist> </sect3> diff --git a/kstars/main.cpp b/kstars/main.cpp index c07c1f036..af3b81481 100644 --- a/kstars/main.cpp +++ b/kstars/main.cpp @@ -155,6 +155,7 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) i18n("Extensive testing and suggestions for Ekos Scheduler.
