    To the developers of AT
    In the next release can a delay box (user configurable to say 1s, 2s etc) be implemented so that the camera exposure can be delayed after a slew? At present AT seems the start the exposure immediately once it receives the slew complete response from the mount, and occassionally on poor quality mounts because the mount is still settling, this can lead to slight trailing of the stars and hence the plate solve fails. This is especially noticeable when using the re-center after slew option

    Cheers
    Robert

      That should be there already, in the mount Setup -dialog.

        Ok many thanks, had not looked it as I assumed it was for the mount properties (ie ASCOM setup)

          IT does NOT save these settings in the .ini file, so one has to re-enter them every time that AT is started. Cannot it be added to the .ini file?
