Hi,

I do not know another way. It woulf be fine if you couldd find the datas to a known object by simply open a find window. You can find objects, for examole Messier verry good. It might be possible to go from the fond window direct to the more info window. But when you would find NGC object even the find window is build up smaller.

Guide then looks at the next object or item nearby. Keep clicking 'next' until the correct object data window is displayed. I hope this is what you are asking,
