The Stellarium team announces the first release candidate of Stellarium version 0.11.2.
Change log for 0.11.2: The main theme of this version seems to be localization: - most of the text used by the default plug-ins is now translateable - landscape names are now translatable - country names are now translatable - scripts names and descriptions are now translatable Oculars plug-in: - added an optional control panel displayed in the upper-right corner of the screen as an alternative to the pop-up menu that was used to control it in the previous version; - overhaul of the pop-up menu, the underlined letters in it can be used as keyboard shortcuts; - added the ability to rearrange the items in the lists of oculars, telescopes and sensors; - fixed the inappropriate flipping of the binoculars view; Satellites plug-in: - fixed title bar of the Satellites config window not being resized with the rest of the window (LP: #900575) - catalog numbers are now used to identify satellites, preventing bugs with duplicate satellites and satellites renamed in the source lists - catalog number and international designator are now displayed for each satellite - a simple windows to add satellites has been added (LP: #898476) Added Ctrl+C binding to copy selected object info text to clipboard. Added to the Windows installer options to remove files left over from the previous installation. Windows no longer can be dragged to unreachable positions.
