I previously bought Starry Night Pro version 4.52 after reading about its "advanced telescope controls" and was astonished to find that I could not even press some arrow keys to center my target in the field of view (unless I was using a Mac computer). Hopefully Windows users can now slew their scopes with arrow keys via the version 6.0 you are mentioning. If so, it will be an awesome program because the rest of Starry Night Pro's features are "outta this world".

I've been wanting to try out some software, but didn't want to invest a few hundred in something that may not pan out. At least $99 is as bad as a few hundred if I don't like it. I don't think I'll be disappointed as Starry Night was on my short list.

When setting the scope up in ASCOM tick "show hand control," and you will indeed get direction buttons...

But thanks for the advice anyway Post Extras:       netwolf super member Reged: 09/03/05 Loc: NSW, Australia Re: Starry Night 6 Pro sale [Re: LoveChina61]       #5646929 - 01/27/13 08:56 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Adam tried new purchase but there is nowhere to enter this code in. Edit: ignore that found it, right at the last step before putting in card details.
