Hi. I'm wondering if it's possible to show the FoV of a plate-solved image on the map? I would like to have that when setting the camera to the same position and angle as in a previous imaging session.

I know one can do it also by targeting the plate-solved centre coordinates and then rotating the camera + plate-solving shots until obtaining the same position angle. Or one could manually configure a camera PoV symbol angled with the target PA, and then again do repeated rotations + plate solves and compare the current camera PoV with the target one.

But I find the first option a bit less appealing, and the second requires several clicks and inputs which shouldn't be necessary because the data is already available from the plate solve. So I'm wondering if I'm missing something?

This wasn't clear to me at all, thank you. I've created a bug ticket for the missing documentation about this.

Hi, FYI I've created a config file for the Olympus OM-D E-M5 MKII using the values from Photons to Photos , attached.

(On Mac, copy to ~/Library/Application Support/kstars/cameradata)
