Status Bar

You will find the status bar at the bottom of your SkyChart window. It is split in two: the coordinates part at the left, an information summary at the right hand side.

Left

barre_statut_gauche.jpg Here you can find two lines which display the coordinates of 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.

After you selected an object, this part of the status bar will display a summary of the detailed information from the catalog about this object:

  • Equatorial coordinates of the object (apparent)
  • first part of the 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.)
