The only thing I can think of is that I selected the option to use SExtractor for processing my image.

I only did this as the default parameters were not saving in the image-radec.fits the very large star in my Orion Nebula flat.  Job 12768338:

I would have expected it to map the very large star at 2612 X 3286; however, it did not.

So, I tried to experiment with selecting the option to use SExtractor.  Job 12768308.

Any suggestions?

Thank you, in advance.

Sincerely,

Stan

Hi,

If you mean the star marked with the green arrow... I read its coordinates as 2618, 3290, and I see it in row 10 of the image-radec.fits table.

Thanks for the bug report - that is indeed related to source extractor -- it names its output columns differently.

cheers,
dustin
