Spent some time learning more about TheSky6 software.
Last night, I had downloaded some new constellation line data files for TS6. After reviewing some online tips, I installed the new line patterns and tried each one. I like Levy's the best. What I'm most used to.
I wondered if there were others. Tried to find Rey's for TS6; no joy. It was interesting to see these patterns are available in the newest version, in TSX.
Phil asked about red/purple meridian marker or banding, specifically how to get rid of it. Said he found it very distracting. And didn't think it really necessary. I tried a few things but couldn't figure out how to do it. Alas, it must be possible... This software is so powerful.
Along the way, I discovered the artwork drawings for the constellations. I didn't know TS6 could do that. I occasionally use this feature in Stellarium. It's good to know it's an option, if needed. That said, it seemed clunky. Not all the drawings appeared at the same. And when you zoomed in and out, they would randomly appear and vanish.
