Cartes du Ciel and Star Names

[johnb]

Hi

So im using Cartes du Ciel with EQMOD and it works a treat, im still learning the software so have a question, If I search for Vega and press return the marker moves to Vega and I can then slew the telescope via the menu to the target. If I double click the marker to get the star info it does not actually say vega ?

Pointers appreciated

Regards

I get Alpha Lyre - which is Vega. Go into set-up/display/lables and you can set the star name to be in different types/formats/colours etc etc
