Re: Display jumping in telescope control.

Brian,
I've noticed the same thing since Guide 5.
It is as if when the calibration is performed, it only calibrates the
area around the reference stars. If insufficient stars are used to
calibrate, it skips areas that don't overlap. Try adding a star to
the calibration close to the area that is being skipped.
Also try using the minimum number (basic calibration)of calibration
stars.
The problem seems (?) most likely to appear when the advanced
calibration is performed to correct mount out-of-square, leveling etc.
I use Guide on a binocular observing chair and this problem is really
annoying.
