-Here you can find two lines which display the coordinates of the current cursor position at the chart. The line on top will be in the coordination system as you set the chart. The line at the bottom will display the position in the equatorial coordination system, except when you set your chart to use the equatorial coordination system. Then it will display the position in the altitude - azimuth coordination system. \\ \\

   * Equatorial coordinates of the object. You can determine which of the equatorial coordinate types is to be displayed by setting this in the lower part of the first tab in **Setup -> Chart, Coordinates -> [[chart_coordinates#type_of_coordinates|Chart, Coordinates]]**.
   * The first part of the **[[en:documentation:detailed_information|detailed information]]** (It will start with the catalog short name, the object identification and further characteristics of the object. The type is coded as defined in the list of objects.)
