I have no idea what Im doing wrong! I have 2 images, both of them 4 image mosaics - one in Ha and one in O3. Im trying to register the O3 to the Ha file, so in Star Alignment, I select the HA Mosaic and in target I select the O3 Mosaic, I have it set to register/match images.... I select an output directory and click apply. No file is written to the output directory but an image appears on screen, the on screen image is not aligned though and when I look in the output console, it appears to have done nothing! What am I doing wrong, this is driving me nuts, been at it for over an hour!!!
