Re: Masking improvements
Thanks Ivo: That's not quite what I was looking for, but I think it could be useful in something like the Sharp function where you have the highest S/N in the center. I was thinking more of having that function available AFTER you do a mask where just stars are selected as in the Repair and Heal fu...

Re: Masking improvements
I added a circle mask generator ('Radius' option) in the Mask Auto generator. Use the threshold parameter to vary the radius. Circle radius is expressed as a percentage width or height, whichever is larger. Selecting the corners only is just a matter of clicking the invert button. You can find the f...

Re: Masking improvements
Hi Bob,
Can I ask in which cases you would use this, just so i get an idea of what to code? I'd be happy to include the functionality in 1.1, but am not entirely sure what you mean (or what you would use this for?).

Re: Synth switch to default refractor/camera lens settings
Hi, This is a great idea! In fact, the idea of easy presets should extend to other modules as well. I've added a refractor and newtonian preset to the PSF generator in the Synth module. You can find the latest download in the usual location. Expect to find more presets in the different modules in th...

Re: Light Pollution
Glad you have found StarWipe useful Pete! :) The Wipe module in StarTools is StarWipe's bigger 'badder' brother. Did you know it actually has a 'StarWipe' mode for those who prefer the old StarWipe look? If anyone is still interested in my previous endeavors; they're still downloadable for free on m...
