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.
Hi,
I was watching the video "Getting started with Astro Pixel Processor by Sara Wager" and noticed that there was a "Details" tick box at the top of the screen for viewing the fits header. My installation of 1.083.4 has the other two tick boxes but does not have the "Details" one. How do I view the fits header?
Thanks, Jim
@jim Hi Jim,
In order to see the FITS header of an image, you need to open the image in the image viewer by double clicking the image in the file list at the bottom of the APP window. The FITS header will then be displayed to the left of the image. You can drag the separation between the FITS header pane and the image pane to the right to see a larger part of the FITS header in one go.

@wvreeven Oh yes, it's on the left. Thanks
