@DENIS, I'm not an expert, but you will probably need Global Star catalog (GSC) too.

Here are some resources, to get you started:
indilib.org/forum/ekos/12503-yet-another...do-i-install-it.html
sourceforge.net/projects/indistarter/files/GSC/
indilib.org/forum/ekos/11848-gsc-catalog...mulations/83709.html
launchpad.net/~mutlaqja/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages

I wrote article on how to add GCS to your existing Raspberry PI astro instalation:

Thanks!

Add a button that uses an existing function. (rather than using Ekos)

AstraLite uses only buttons and the excellent StellarSolver.

AstraLite keeps it simple

I think that it will be simple and easy to use by linking with the functions of Kstars and Ekos as shown in the figure.
I think that adding too many functions to AstraLite will make it difficult to use.

I would like to make good use of the linkage function and hope for a simple and easy-to-use evolution.

@DENIS
I just tested the latest version. And I am enthusiast about your project.
I searched the guider daclaration in the gui without founding it. Is it normal or is this not yet implemented ?
Would be nice to have some themes availables to be able to change the ui apparence. On my PC the ui appears in white and there is no other themes available. Maybe a leak in the git repository.
But that a great idea to offers a tab oriented gui to INDI.
Cheers

Guiding by main camera is little disguised now )) I will change this in the future to make it more clear.



This means 1) AstraLite will run mount calibration after tacking first light frame, 2) will correct mount position after each light frame if stars move more than 5 pixels relative of first frame

Also I can insert checkbox to make INDI properties tabs standard.

What OS are you using? AstraLite uses current GTK theme in Linux and also allows to select theme (light/dark) in MS Windows.

I would agree with Euripides in the comment.....
I hope that all of you guys will have the time one day to improve Ekos with your ideas and programming skills. For example I am looking your GUI and I wish I could have the ability to have my Ekos like this.

Here is my WISHLIST: I would like to see Ekos with the ability for external modules, so that others can add these components and be independent (if they so decide).
