 For Solar system objects, you can find information like the object type, and the object identification (name). Please forgive SkyChart when it shows you the Sun as a planet. All other information in this paragraph is dynamically calculated from the ephemeris data. This information depends on the type of solar system object you 're dealing with. \\
-==== Coordinates ====
-The coordinates of your object will be shown in the equatorial systems (apparent and mean), and also in the ecliptic - and galactic systems.
+==== Coordinates ====
+The first line of this paragraph, starting with ''Coordinates:'', informs you to which of the equatorial coordinate systems the chart is set. The chart can show you on several coordinates in the equatorial systems, for example at the **[[status_bar|status bar]]**.  You can specify the equatorial coordinate system of your chart by the tab Chart, Coordinates from the menu by **setup -> [[chart_coordinates#type_of_coordinates|Chart, Coordinates]]**, in the **type of coordinates** part. \\
+The other lines show you the coordinates of your object in the specified coordinate systems. Here, you can find the equatorial systems (apparent and mean), and also in the ecliptic - and galactic systems.
