Hi,

I'm using Kstars 2.9.1 in Raspbian. I've found that in the focusing module, I cannot zoom-in above 100%. e.g. I can't do 120% or 150% in the framing setup.
Is this normal?

Plus I use a Bahtinov mask to focus, which I only need the framing and zoom to work. I do not need the star detection and FWHM. I can see the EKOS always try to detect the stars, and draw circles around them. Can I disable the drawing of such circles?

Are you using "Limited resources Mode" option? If so the zoom is locked to 100% to prevent a memory hog that hangs the RPi.

As for the circles I can't say.

Yes you can disable that, in the floating toolbar, just click on the "star" icon to turn it off.

No.
But it turns out I'm suffering from some other problems in the raspbian. I switched to ubuntu and update to the latest version and able to get the zoom working.
