Here a few tips for speeding up the operation of SkyGlobe 3.0:
This new version of SkyGlobe may appear to run a bit slower when
you first start it up. In large measure, this is due to the greater
range of operations the program now performs. Since it is now
easier than ever to customize your environment in SkyGlobe, this
is not that great an inconvience.
Some of the new features in SkyGlobe that are the most time-consuming
are the Milky Way and the constantly updated mouse position display.
If necessary, you can turn off the Milky Way with the 'K' command.
You may need to scroll through a few color changes to get there.
Displaying just the outlines is quite a bit faster than the region
fill, pretty as it may be.
The mouse postion display can be turned off in one of two ways. You can
use 'F2' to turn off all parameter display, or 'Alt-F5' to turn off just
the mouse position display.
All these settings can be easily saved as the new program default by
pressing '0'. You will be asked if you want the program to start up
with the currently set time, or the system time when you start SkyGlobe
again. That's all there is to it!
