Dean,

>> would like to see the rms plot for the whole guide session
To be clear, I assume you're talking about the plot in the lower right hand corner with 2 concentric circles
(because you already can see the drift graphs for the whole time period).
It's possible to add that, but I'm unclear of the semantics of selecting multiple sessions.
Can you suggest? E.g. what would it mean to select multiple captures or multiple focus sessions?
FYI, I believe I have one control-click in there already (to reset the y-axis), so I understand how to add
those click modifiers. In an early version of this I had a help-popup to show all these things, but
it got moved to online doc, and, unfortunately, somehow the process is for adding to the online doc
is currently broken
>> playback of the guide rms scatter plot showing accumulation of data points ?
Do you mean an animation, where you see one point then another ... sort of a "real-time playback"?
If so, I also thought of doing animations like that (but for autofocus), but in the end decided that it was not a v1.0 feature.
I'm curious, why do you think it would be useful?
>> can the data be exported to a phd2 log viewer readable text file ?
This is a separate topic from Analyze, but guiding data can be (usually is) exported to PHD2 format.
Make sure that the checkbox called "Save Internal Guider User Log" is checked
(you find that in the Options-->Guide section in the lower right corner of the Guide Tab)
and then you can find your log in a sister directory to the main logs.
On linux that would be in ~/.local/share/kstars/guidelogs/*
It has been that way for several months, so you may have old guide logs there you can look at with phdlogview
(or, alternatively, you can now use analyze to see guiding, though its input is a different file format).
