Hi, I have a question; I am very new to stellarium but I do think it is awesome. I have an issue though that I am looking out of my window at the setting sun and it is a couple of degrees or so above my actual horizon. When I check Stellarium the sun has pretty much set behind the horizon.
Can anyone explain this. I have put in my GPS coordinates and altitude and the time seems to be ok.
Appreciate any help here....

Are you in the Southern hemisphere on a location with daylight saving time? How should we know? If you set location and timezone (F6 panel), the simulation should be accurate.

Hi thanks for the response. Not sure if I have an answer to this. When I took out the landscape then it seems to be ok.

I would say the stellarium view is about 30 minutes advanced of what I actually see if that is of any help....
