DSP5.1 Update - Beta 3 still under test

Beta 3 is going well. With one usability issue being addressed and two final feature additions pending, this week should end with a fairly solid build, Beta #4. Testers are currently using Beta #3 to develop plans that can be shared with other users once version 5.1 is released. More on this soon.

Deep-Sky Planner plans can be used in some interesting new ways (screenshots below):
  • Plans are being converted (using a temporary tool) into Argo Navis User catalog files and uploaded via Argonaut. Knightware thanks Wildcard Innovations for their kind assistance while developing support for the Argo Navis.
  • Plans are being exported to HTML and viewed on an Android tablet browser.
  • Plans are being printed to PDF format and being shared with non-DSP users. They have also been loaded and viewed on a Kindle.
