Using UCAC3, UCAC3_PATH not working....

rbrbrts Sep 9, 2015

I'm relatively new to Guide...


I have both UCAC3 and UCAC4, but some other software I have likes to reference UCAC3 stars, so I want to be able to toggle between which I'm using.


I've done the Alt-J thing and entered the paths to each of the catalogs and they show up in guide.dat as


UCAC3_PATH=C:\Astronomy Catalogs\ucac3

UCAC4_PATH=C:\Astronomy Catalogs\ucac4


After doing this, UCAC4 shows up as an option in "toggle user datasets" but UCAC3 only shows the Vizier download option. Stars show up with UCAC4 designations when UCAC4 is on, but if I turn if off, I fall back to just Tycho and GSC.


Is there some other magic switch I need to toggle? I'm using the 27 July 2015 version of Guide 9.0


TIA,
