Telescope Reviews: Sequence Generator - Image Capture Suite 2.1.15

Sequence Generator Pro 2.1.15 Beta is released for testing.

Sequence Generator is a powerful image capture suite that supports equipment profiling for easy sequence generation, powerful event sequencing, auto focus, automatic precision target centering, click-to-center, automatic meridian flipping (using PHD) and hundreds of other features.

Known Issues:
- During install, some users are still experiencing QSI DLL registration errors. There are annoying, but harmless.
- Auto meridian flip is not yet compatible with Takahashi Temma mounts (working with Chuck F on this)

Fixes:
- Fixed a bug in the Auto Focus filter override that might attempt to change a filter even if the CFW is not connected
- Fixed a bug where dialogs would appear behind the control panel if it was pinned
- Fixed a bug where an error was received if attempting to view FITS headers for images that were not saved to disk
- Fixed a bug that would cause SGPro to crash if you had the automatic frame restart option enabled, but no auto guider selected
- Fixed a bug where "duplicate target" did not copy target settings
- Fixed a bug that would scroll to the top of the event list every second when the sequence was running

Changes:
- A free Sequence Generator Lite version has been added for expired trials (more details on this shortly)
- Status text and progress bars moved from the sequencer window to the main window's status bar
- SGPro will now prompt to import filter data from the filter wheel's driver (when they have not been defined by the sequence)
- Added a button to import filters from your filter wheel's list (in the filter setup dialog)
- Tooltips for 2.1 are complete
- Implemented exposure countdown for Frame and Focus, Auto Focus and Plate Solve frames. Done in same manner as in sequence frames
- Added keyboard shortcut F5 (runs the sequence)
- Better event notification messaging when a frame restarts due to guiding error
- Duplicating a target no longer copies the source progress
- Clicking on the event pause or park indicators will bring you directly to the event options now
- Text dealing with "Resetting" sequences and events now indicates it is for resetting progress
