Re: [OWCloud] Incoming Release of OccultWatcher 5.0
Hi Dave, Thanks for reporting all this. - Rank is indeed wrong or more correctly it was the rank of the original prediction before the event was tagged and a better prediction was uploaded/computed. However because of the nature of the search this form does, the Rank is actually correct but I fully understand that it is not what you expected to see. This kind of comes back to the usefulness of this particular form and I'll need to improve it. I don't think that this will happen before the release of OW 5.0 and I also don't think this issue is serious enough to stop the release of OW 5.0. Would you disagree with that statement? - Event Time - as per my other reply pages are not related to an observer's location and I am trying to make them show minimum text/data. I personally don't see an issue with the title 'Event Time' and the time that is displayed as this could possibly only mean one thing - what the value actually is. I am open for suggestions but at this point I don't think that this needs changing. There is also as separate problem with those search forms as a whole. I will need to build new forms better targeted to observers. Current forms are more for people looking at whether OWC is working correctly and require knowledge of how they work so showing 'inconvenient' event Date Time is better than showing no time at all, when showing a user specific time is not an option. Also on this form showing the full range is also not an option here, either, unless I modify what the form does or how fast it works. - I agree that showing Magnitude before Mag Drop is more 'natural' so I will do as you suggest with the next update of OWC, which typically happens silently i.e. I just update it without telling anyone, unless there is something cool to tell you about :) Thanks again! Hristo.

Re: [OWCloud] Incoming Release of OccultWatcher 5.0
Hi Dave, Thanks for submitting your notes about this page. - 13.5 is indeed the combined magnitude as reported by the Occelmnt file i.e. there is no error in the title. This is computed from the V magnitude of the star (13.59) and the magnitude of the asteroid (17.01) - The magnitude listed as 12.45 for the star is the Red magnitude from
the Occelmnt file. Because our cameras are more sensitive in red in this
instance I thought that preferring to show the R magnitude over the V magnitude
(which is 13.6) would be more useful. I could update the title to read (R=12.45m) however in this instance I think I should change the magnitude to be the V magnitude (13.6 as you correctly pointed out) so it is consistent with the Combined magnitude which is displayed next to it and is based on the V magnitude. - Event Date & Time - The general pages of OWC are not related to a specific site on the Earth so this time has a meaning of the time of the closest approach. You are correct that the full interval is from 17:50 to 18:16 UT and this is displayed to the bottom right under the Earth plot. I will try to think of a better title for the time. While I like 'Date & Time of Closest Approach' I think this is probably too long and the naming should be consistent across this page and the event search results page. Do you have a suggestion for a different title or a different 'fix' for this 'issue'? - Star charts not going to the actual star - this is unfortunately true. Appears that Aladin was unable to locate the star (UCAC4 0323-126197) and instead of showing an error message, it decided to go to coordinates (0, 0). I will see if I can do something about this on my end. I have recorded this as an OWC bug, which I will look at a later time: Hristo.

Re: Cannot Install OccultWatcher
Hi Jeff, I'm going to send this to the the group for everyone's benefit as well. OW
was designed to be running in the background all the time so it
synchronises automatically and does pop-up notifications when there is
an event coming up. For this reason it starts minimised in the system
tray when Windows starts and you need to open it up from there if you want to use it. There is a second way OW can be used, too. If
you uncheck Configuration -> Other options -> Start when windows
starts, then OW will no longer start minimized in the system tray. This means that in this mode of opearation: - You will need to start OW manually each time you want to use it - You will need to synchronise manually (so OW gets the list of the latest events) - When it starts the windows will remain on the screen (will not minimise in the system tray) - When you close it it will exit i.e. will not continue to run in the background and will not provide pop-up notifications. - When you press the minimize button OW will go into the system tray and will run in the background These are the two supported modes of operation.

Cartes du Ciel add-in for OW
Hi All, Grzegorz Czepiczek in Poland has developed an add-in for OccultWatcher that can plot charts using Cartes du Ciel, which has been presented by Wojciech Borzy¨½ski at ESOP XXXIX (). The current version of the add-in can be downloaded from here: Grzegorz is looking for beta testers for the add-in, so the development can be finalized and the add-in can be made available in OccultWatcher. Please send any add-in testing feedback or questions to grzegorzczepiczek@... and feel free to CC me as well. Thanks, Hristo Pavlov. |

I've attached the text of that details window at the bottom of this message. If I click Continue, the lower half of the Configuration window is blank. There is no prompt to sign into my OW account. Any advice is appreciated.

Re: Close double star feed
Our late friend Brad Timerson used to create a special file each year, with the upcoming year's?"close double star lunar occultations" for anyone who wanted it for their location. Then you had to configure OW for that feed to point to your copy of that file. It hasn't worked since Brad passed.? I miss it too, it was a source of events that I could use with local high school students to demonstrate an occultation and possibly even a double star event (step D or R). Ted B.

Occult Watcher 5.0 Public Beta Begins
Hi All, The public beta of OccultWatcher 5.0 is now live. You will need to manually download the zip file below and then extract and copy the files into your OW install location (by default C:\Occult Watcher) overwriting the existing files: You can take a back up copy if you wish. You can also make a full copy of C:\Occult Watcher to say C:\Occult Watcher Old and still keep your old version of OW. Both versions cannot run simultaneously, however you can stop one and start the other one as you wish. Feed maintainers will need to continue upload the events/feeds to OWC as they have done in the past few weeks. The test is for both OW and OWC and we may encounter bugs on both ends. Please report anything suspicious or obviously wrong. I will be also very much looking for ideas for improvements i.e. what can be done better, particularity on the OWC side. To minimize the emails, if the issue you are raising is related to OWC please send it to the OWC group (or me directly). If the issue is with OW, send it to the OccultWatcher group (or me directly). Thanks again for your participation. Regards, Hristo Pavlov. |
