Oh, my, more interface clutter. While users have requested a way to select which categories of DSOs are displayed, I think that a separate slider for each is overkill. Also, a comment on a previous question of yours: On 18 March 2012 14:15, bdwashbu <bdwas...@gmail.com> wrote: > I also think that the sliders should be ticked and a label show their > current value, because I'm not even sure what their value currently > represents. (I assume apparent magnitude) The sliders are deliberately unitless and don't represent apparent magnitude. Instead, they control the number of objects shown on the screen with a somewhat unclear formula which includes apparent magnitude and dynamic eye adaptation. Please also have in mind that one of the reasons Stellarium is popular with educators and people who are total beginners in astronomy is the simplicity of its interface. New features should be carefully designed. Just slapping hack over hack as has been the tendency recently won't lead to anything good. We already kicked out the planetarium users, let's not alienate more groups.
