Implementing multiple map projections!
You now have a choice in how the sky map is projected:
Lambert Azimuthal Equal-area (this is the one we've been using)
Azimuthal Equidistant (similar to Lambert)
Orthographic (like viewing a globe)
Stereographic
Gnomonic (great circles are straight lines)
You can choose the projection in the View menu, or with the F5-F10 keys
TO get a feel for the differences, try zooming out to see the whole
projection and then switch between them.
TODO: the Projection submenu items need to be radio-style items.
I also fixed a bug that caused a crash when opening the Configuration
window. However, there are still problems with that window (after all,
this is the first time we've seen it in 4.x!)
