Suggestion: Displaying pointing position in ALT-AZ degrees in Solar System mode

FZS

If it was displayed live in ALT-AZ degrees where the Seestar is acutally pointing to, especially when trying to find the Moon or the Sun, it would be easier to find them manually when automatic targeting fails. There may be just 1° deviation that causes the error of not finding the Moon/Sun, but if we know the pointing position of Seestar, we could adjust it manually by the virtual joystick.

Most of times when it doesn't find the Sun automatically, it is just below the FOV. For example, if I could see that Seestar points to 50° AZ and the Sun is at 48° AZ in reality, I could easily find it manually with this suggested feature. Even if it is not going to be so puntual, I could have any idea of the deviation, so it would be much better than seeing nothing.

It also would be helpful in the Scenery mode.

Thank you in advance.

FZS makes no sense. If it can't find the sun it's due to compas or level sensor misalignment. But in solar mode wo stars sync it calculates AltAz values from the same compas and level values, so, it would not help.

Lilo I don't agree. Even if there is compass or level misalignment, you COULD see how many degrees the scope moves up or down by moving it manually with the virtual joystick. And this is the point. Now you can see nothing, just an error message that finding the Sun failed. And it is usually due to just a 0.5° vertical error. So if there was a live feedback for the actual position and you could move the scope just 0.5° down/up manually, you would be able to target the Sun/Moon easily.
