Andy,
Are there any plans to write a guide log viewer for us Mac users?  Thanks

PHD2 Log viewer will work on Mac, I just need to build the OSX package. I'll do that and post back.

Woot!
Thank you!
I was about to second the first request, but you beat me to it!
My most recent log is current displaying

A minor complaint:
the text in the section heading box is nearly unreadable because it’s too small and looks like it’s being re-scaled from a larger font (font substitution?).  The windows version has the text clearly readable.

Here’s a screenshot:

Hugh,
Ok, thanks for the feedback. I have added that to my to-do list for next time I work on the app.

Andy,
Thank you so much. I had thoughts of writing my own viewer in Xojo but thought I would ask first. Glad I did as you saved me a lot of work!
I do appreciate your work in providing an excellent guiding program and the analysis program to accompany it.

Andy,
I've noticed that when clicking on a new Log Section, the window displaying the cursor information still shows where the cursor was located during the previous log section. This does not update until the cursor is moved to the graph. It's not a big deal, just an idiosyncrasy.

Dave,
Yes, it does that in the windows version too.  I guess it would be better to blank out the information when moving a new guide section is selected.  I'll fix that in the next update.

Awesome!  Great work Andy!  I've always wanted it on my Mac since my only windows machine runs my imaging setup.  It's great having the option to analyze a session's guiding w/o having to fire up the imaging rig.

Thanks!
Gabe
