That is much better Jasem, the clutter of the multiple INDI submenus that mostly don't do anything and change order every time you connect to the INDI server is gone. The functions you put in that submenu are still very useful and they work well in that submenu, since they are associated with that INDI device and most of them are relevant to the skymap point that you clicked. But the critical Goto function is still in a submenu. The main thing I use the skymap for during an observing session is to look around the sky, select a target, and goto the target. I know that everyone uses the program in different ways, and there are many useful features in the contextual menu, but I think GOTO object is one of the primary commands that should be easily accessible. I think it should right under the Center & Track menu item when telescopes are connected.

Hy's suggestion of a keyboard shortcut to goto an object could be a viable solution to the problem as well. In fact, other Astronomy programs I have seen allow you to select another key while you click on an object, such as ctrl, to tell your telescope to goto the object. That would work well. But it does have a couple of drawbacks. There could be more than one mount connected and which one would go when you ctrl-click the object? Also a keyboard shortcut is not as beginner friendly as a menu item since you can't see any visual indication that you can ctrl-click. Also it might be too easy to accidentally be pushing the button when you click on the skymap and not realize it. But yes, this would be a good solution as long as it is not too easy to accidentally slew your telescope.

What I do is this
1. Focus on the object with Find, Double Click or optionally set the advanced option to enable Left Click selects Object.
2. Bind a quick-key shortcut to Slew Telescope to the focused object. I use CTRL+Media Play. CTRL+ helps avoid accidental triggering.
3. Alternately use the Slew telescope to focused object button in the telescope control toolbar.

I also have Slew to mouse pointer bound to CTRL+Return to go to an undesignated coordinate, often referring to the DSS overlay for framing.

Bottom line is I rarely use the right-click popup menu.

Yes, I'm also using the toolbar button. Unfortunately that only slews to targets, and not to the position of your FOV. If the target is 'nothing' the mount doesn't move

So for me the 'ideal' solution would be to patch the toolbar function to also go to empty positions...

Try setting up Slew to mouse pointer as a shortcut. Just position the pointer over the location you want and it will GOTO that spot.

The thing is, for that you have to point exactly at the center of the FOV. I've already defined a 1 arcmin crosshair in the center that I can use for that. But the system of course already knows the exact coordinates, so why do I have to find them myself and click there?
From the user POV, the 'target' is where I'm currently pointing at. I usually first decide on the exact pointing in the starmap (with help of a sensor FOV marker) and once I'm happy I slew there. So a 'Slew to target' should go to whatever the current center coordinates are, and not only if they match some stored target coordinates
And if 'slew to target' can really only go to predefined locations, we likely want a new option/function 'slew to pointing coordinates'

Slew to Target does not go to specific target coordinate, it goes to wherever RA/DE the mount was tracking when you started the solve.

Hmm, I don't mean the Solve&Slew from Align, but the toolbar icon 'slew to target'. If the displayed target is 'nothing', i.e., not a named object, that button will do nothing.
IMHO it should still move to the center location.....

I'm thinking it could be clicked by mistake and you don't want to have your mount moving to some random location. Maybe extra confirmation box?

Don't know - I'm not too big a fan of triple safety nets
But the random location could as well be a named target - that doesn't mean you want to go there just because it has a name. So if no one complained so far that the mount went somewhere he/she didn't want it, it's safe to do the same if it is pointing at any coordinates (of course also still with the usual checks like 'below horizon').
I'd say the icon in the toolbar is far enough away (and IIRC not even enabled by default) to not be clicked accidentally.

The slew to mouse pointer will go wherever the pointer is positioned without having to specify it's coordinates and will effectively do what Right Click>Track does when not on an catalogued target.
Other options you might consider include creating flags or manually add DSO details under the Data tab.
Lastly, are you familiar with the FITS image viewer function that allows your to target an area of an image with WSC coordinates to center onto?

Yep, I am certainly familiar with the Center telescope function, since I am the one who wrote it

Yes, there are many ways to slew your telescope to an object, with the Dialog Box, the Whats Interesting information window, the Mount Control Toolbox, Keyboard Shortcuts, the Center Telescope Function, a programmed observing list, the scheduler, the toolbar buttons, and the Right click menu. (and probably others) I agree all these methods are good. But I think it would really help users to have a simple way to use the skymap to slew their telescope that doesn't involve any special setup or complications. I would like to be able to tell a new user of KStars that anyone using KStars can slew their telescope to that object they see in the skymap right away by just doing this. ..

The current method of using the right click menu that I started this thread with was already improved by Jasem this week by clearing out the unused commands and menus for CCDs etc. It still has the drawback of it being in a submenu of the right click menu though.

The method you mention of the keyboard shortcuts could work pretty well, but the user would have to set up the shortcuts first and there is a very serious risk that you could accidentally slew to an object you did not intend to go to by hitting the keyboard. You would really want a dialog to confirm the movement. Also there is the issue of which mount do you want it to slew there if more than one is connected.

I think one method of doing it that would be really nice would be to shift click on an object to slew the telescope to that object. This method is less likely to accidentally slew your telescope because you have to click on the object and hold down key(s) at the same time. I could very easily implement the code to make this work. But again, which mount do you want to slew? Also, a dialog to confirm would still be good.

And the final option is the one that I mentioned at the beginning, to put a "GOTO" item in the right click menu for each INDI connected telescope right underneath the map centering command. This is fairly easy to use, and you can select which telescope mount you want to slew. It also would be even easier for me to code because I already wrote the code that would do this

This looks better, but I agree with Robs original suggestion. In general the interface should put the most used functions first & easiest. I find it a particular problem as I access the system via VNC on a laptop with a small screen, so getting my cursor in the right place is tricky at present. I often select the wrong option by mistake.
