This provides a quick and easy way to read or set the coordinates of the center of the chart. Coordinates can be equatorial or azimuthal. The conversion is done automatically.

Here you also can set a very precise FOV (precision: second) and a rotation (precision: degree) for the chart.

Other ways to change the position and field of vision:

You can change the FOV in an easier -but less precise- way by the zoom group buttons from the main bar, or by the buttons from the The Field of Vision group.
