Hi Jost,

If you use the Settings/RA-Dec format dialog box,
this will only
change the RA/Dec display in the legend, but not
the grid itself.

The point is that the coordinates for the display
and for the
grid are set at different menus.

Go to the Display/Ticks Grids, etc menu and click
on "Grids".
A dialog box will appear where you can set the
equinoctium
for the GRID. If you enter e.g. J3000.0 here,
Guide will shift
the grid.

Cheers
Hartwig
