dithering without auto guiding

is there a way to dither with ekos, without actually auto guiding . such as for my cem60-ec mount with encoder that doesn't need guiding for the shorter exposure/focal length imaging .

sgp can do it with direct mount guiding, astroimager can do it by sending bumps to the mount for definable milliseconds.

thanks

there's an option in the Guide tab -> options... -> guide named 'non guide dither pulse (ms)'.
I only have used it once with my mount (10micron hps 1000) but doesn't seem to send pulses to the mount. So I didn't even test if pulses are in sync with capture.

Thanks for the report. There was a regression and it is fixed in GIT. Should be available in KStars v3.3.3 release or in Nightly release tonight.

hi suvowner,
just to have a rough idea, how many milliseconds you set?

thanks
