stellarium for reflector telescopes

[Ursa Major]

Hello,

Does anyone know if its possible to mirror the image in stellarium so it will show what you will see through a reflector telescope. Im forever mirroring the image in my mind while observing and its getting annoying when star hopping. If it is possible, how do you do it?

Thank you.

You can do it while using the ocular view (cmd-o on Mac). Hit opt-o to get the setup window. On the telescope tab you can specify which axes to flip.

Wow, I never knew you could do this. This will be so so so so so useful. I cannot thank you enough lol.

You know that CTRL+SHIFT+v does a vertical mirror and CTRL+SHIFT+h does a horizontal mirror. In the Configuration window you can check "Show flip buttons" which gives you the same two keyboard commands as clickable buttons at the bottom of the screen.
