I can find the WLM galaxy using search (object found), however Stellarium does
not show the result in the sky. Is there anyway to get WLM galaxy to show?
(Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte Galaxy).
Thanks for any help.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
There is no picture in Stellarium's nebulae folder and it does not have an ngc
number so stellarium knows where it is but has nothing to display. When
Stellarium can use the DSS photos it will show. However if you install
Stellarium Virgo (it is a special version of 0.10.3) and enable the DSS you
will see a picture of it.

If you really want to see a representation of the galaxy down load these extra
nebulae and install them instead of the standard version
