Make sure the Bright Star Catalog is active for the chart. Make sure the label options are set to show star labels for sufficiently faint stars. Make sure that both "name" and "short name" is selected under "label information" in the label options.
If you select just "name", but not "short name", in the label options, then rather than the greek symbol, you get the common name (if available), followed by Flamsteed #, followed by the abbreviated Beyer (greek) designation, like "Gam Vir". But there seems to be a problem with Gamma Virginis (#29 by Flamsteed), because I get "29 Gam Vir 29 Gam Vir" (yes, printed twice), with the common name "Porrima" printed over the first "29 Gam Vir". -John --- Mel Richardson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > Perhaps I misunderstand but I have the Greek Font in 'Symbols'.
