So, I went to the following web page:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?
group_id=64092&package_id=97423
I downloaded the picture file for windows and put it in the indicated
folder:
data/pictures/sac
I even saw that the pictures are available in the picture editor:
Images>background image
BUT...
The even with directions in CdC's own help file and what's written
below (from the SourceForge site), I can't get the images to display
on the charts. In fact, the directions below mystify me since I can't
find "Configuration" anywhere in CdC and I don't understand the MySQL
stuff...
HELP!
(Below from SourceForge Site:)
- Show a picture for every object in the SAC database with the
exception of dark nebulae and galaxy cluster. Install the
skychart_picture package that contain the 9894 files. This is
installed to the data/pictures/sac/ folder.
For all this function it is necessary to have the MySQL database
installed.
If not already done, please install the MySQL package and go to
Setup - Configuration - System to create a database. The default
options must be right for a new MySQL installation, just press
the "Create Database" button.
After installation of the pictures go to Setup - Configuration -
Pictures - Object then click "Scan Directory" to register the images
in the program.
Repeat this operation after every change to the picture folder.
