Show Moon Photo (Deluxe edition)
(Found under Options Menu)
The standard setting is to show a photograph of the Moon. This menu item may be used to turning this off. This can be
useful for printing and to study and learn the general position and shape of features (if the size option is on in the Modify
Showings panel). Snapshot below:
Moon North Up
This menu item selects whether the Moon’s North is up (as with a refractor, binoculars, or naked eye), or inverted with
South up (as with Newtonian telescopes.) east is normally on the Right in this case. However, if your equipment requires
it, you can have North up and East to the Left by using the next menu option.
Moon East On Right
This menu item controls whether the Moon’s East is to the right side of the screen or the left side. When North is up (as
with a refractor, binoculars, or naked eye), the East is on the right side normally. However, if your astronomical
equipment requires it, you can have North up and East to the Left by using this menu option.
When inverted such that South is up (as with Newtonian telescopes), East is normally seen at the Left side of the screen
and this is automatically set for you. However, if your equipment requires it, you can set the display to have South up
and East on the Right by using this menu option.
Metric
This menu item selects between English or Metric system display of measurements. These are used in reporting
diameters, heights, depths, and distances. Lunar Discoverer automatically converts all units to the system of your choice.
