Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.
When I used the Star Reducer tool in the past there was an option to save the stars removed from an image. I am not seeing that now. Any help will be appreciated! Thanks.
I will have to take a look in a few days, I didn't think that was removed, but not sure. We're away from 02-02 for about a week to Astrofest London so please allow for a few days to a week for a response, sorry for the delay.
Any update on this one? I hope ASTROFEST went well.
Sorry, missed your request. Could you point to the actual option you saw in the previous version? I don't think we removed things like that, but I can ask Mabula to be sure.
If I am remembering accurately, when the Star Reducer was first available I was able to save the stars removed from a fits file and process them separately from the rest of the image and then combine the two processed images later. I never tried this but now could use it. Perhaps I misunderstood, but appreciate it if you could check. APP is such a great set of tools.
It is not something we've had no, Mabula does want to work on that going forward especially for the comet registration.
