Hi John and all,

The revised updated model is attached,"horanalem3filev2B.bas". This one is
based on Fer's latest version and adds a layer with the seasonal markers and
date lines.

Our perspectives differ on analemmatic sundials. My designs have typically
been large dials in public parks using a person as the gnomon. The gnomon is
wide; the hour points are large. There is no room or need more time points.
Your table top analemmatic dial uses a narrow gnomon and has an accuracy
that demands the finer resolution of more time points. The attached revised
version provides for all these options, fractional hour time points, day
circles and seasonal marker points and lines.

Thanks for the suggestion. The changes were minor. You should have taken
this on as a homework exercise.

Cheers,

Roger Bailey

Hi Roger:

I've been using your new DC macro that includes the Bailey Points. I noticed
however that you modified an older version of Fer's analemmatic macro that
only shows hour point time increments.  Your modified DC macro would be much
more useful if you would include time points options for 1/2 hrs, 1/4 hrs,
1/6 hrs as Fer does in his updated version. (see attachment).

Just a suggestion!

John
