Hi everyone
My first post here so may I firstly thank you for such an efficient and useful piece of software?

We have a problem with kstars/EKOS
Whilst other solvers -e.g. astrometry.net- return the correct image orientation, ASTAP does not.

The detail is outlined here:

Would it be possible to revert or mirror the orientation of the solved image so that the correct image orientation is returned?

TIA
