Stellarium v 0.18.2 restart problems.

[anthony2577]

Hi there, long time since I have  used my gear due to illness and ‘old age’

Having recently set up my gear in my dome, to connect the Stellarium software for computer control of ‘Scope

the installation is causing me a headache.

I keyed in all my telescope settings on the Plugin page then clicking ‘Main’ then saved  my settings.

But when I restart Stellarium and check the page it’s blank!!! All my saved information has somehow been erased....weird

Would be grateful for advice/help as to what this 77 yr old is doing wrong

Many thanks and Clearskies

Anthony

Some more info is required, e.g. Operating System ?  which version of Stellarium ?  

If you are using the latest version (20.1) on Windows 10, then have a look in "C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\Stellarium" as the config file should be there...

I should read the subject properly & not jump-in, but I'd also recommend updating to 20.1, which also has the big advantage that you would no longer require the use of StellariumScope.

Hi Julian,

Thanks for speedy reply,  I have noted the additional information also your comments about version 0.20 which does not require StellarumScope.

in the meantime :: I am using Stellarium version 0.18.2 on a Windows 10 64bit laptop.

i would value any assistance you can provide about  why restarting causes my ‘saved telescope settings’ to be eraed

Thanks

anthony
