Tools > Plate Solve

Post by Morten Lerager » 18 Sep 2023, 12:17

Hi'
Is there a script command for invoke the Tools > Plate solve command
And setting the parameter. Search region or from image center.
Horizontal field ....

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=440&p=1722&hilit=sc ... olve#p1725

"OK, the setting of the horizontal field will be added to Service Pack 2."
But where do I find the function ?

Thank you.

From the help file under scripts.

Image.FindCoordinates (ra,de,stars,[search],[fovarcmin])

Finds the center plate and calibrates the image via plate solving. It's possible to set the search zone in degrees (default is 2°x2°) and the field of view in arcminutes.

I thought the function was only for translate pixel to RA DEC.
