v13 * Support for "new" Sugar toolbars * Fixed initialize bug with lmag 115 (v12) Stable 1.2 release 2010/04/21 * Improved stars1.py catalog. * Changed the algorithm of the "Identify" feature so that an extended object is favored over point objects that it hides in the plot. (Example: M42 is found whereas some of the stars embedded in it used to be found instead.) Unfortunately, for large extended objects an invisible point object may still be indentified if the user clicks sufficiently far from the center of the extended object. * Added dso2.py which is a catalog of the larger, brighter Bennett objects (analagous to the Messier objects but in the southern skies) and the NGC objects not otherwise catalogged which have common names. * Added the ability to display a magnified view corresponding to what would be seen through typical 7-power binoculars. In order to show the sky as it would appear with binoculars, I also added a supplemental star catalog that adds about 2500 stars which are too dim to see without an instrument (stars2.py). These stars are taken from the SAO catalog. * Removed the radio button for magnitude 0 -- there are too few stars brighter than magnitude 1 for it to be useful to distinguish the mag 1 stars from the mag 0 stars. * Re-arranged controls on the "What" and "Where" toolbars so that the controls still fit if Spanish localization is applied. These additions bring the feature set up to what I have planned; the program is now finished (unless I get bug reports or compelling requests for additional capabilities). 093 Stable 1.1 release 2010/03/14 Fixed bug #15. Provided Spanish translation. 089 Stable 1 release 2010/02/27 Added "About" to better identify version Added "Identify" to tell user what object he has selecteed on the map. Added "Locate" to show user where the object she chose is in the sky. Improved input error handling and reporting (no more Alerts). Added constellation ID to star catalog. All text is internationalized (including object names in catalogs). 054 Beta 5 release 2008/09/24 Fixed color scheme bug. Added license metadata. Added activity name in Spanish. 040 Beta 4 release 2008/07/15 Plotting of large, bright Messier catalog objects. Code reorganization: StarChart.py = algorithms; stars1.py, dso1.py and constellations.py = catalogs. Optional observatory.py = set default latitude & longitude. Optional travel.py = override default location and XO's timezone. 033 Beta 3 release 2008/03/21 Labels are now provided for the cardinal directions. Error checking (and reporting) for coordinates and time. Update of invarient chart is avoided. 027 Beta 2 release 2008/03/04 Can now save and restore display preferences, position and time. Menu bars are now like in other Activities. Latitude and Longitude can be specified in float degrees as well as dms. Program icon no longer a place-holder. 011 Initial (beta 1) release. 2008/02/20
