I now know what this last rather cryptic post by Alex is referencing. It looks to be the development-team has incorporated features on the surface's of the planets and moon's of our our solar-system. The latest 'Trunk' version of Stellarium ('beta') -  0.90.0.9930 - bears this out. These are from this version:

Amazing stuff!

Thanks, folks -

I dont know whether this is the right place to report this small error; but the right angle of Triangulum is in the wrong place. The line should surely be from Mizan to Gamma Tri and not to 7 Tri.

No exist the right form for constellations lines, but in this case seems your are right - I'll fix it. Thanks!

Stellarium v0.90.0.16018 (v0.18.0.9) is here already (with small, but very good changes)...

Just tried the Mac version on the latest Mac OS 10.13.5.  It won't start?

 

The previous version worked OK
