Thanks Frans, I'll let you know how I get on. Regards, Peter

Hi Frans, Thanks for your prompt reply! I'm going to try option 1 because I have to get the charts printed online and already have the A4 version. I think I may lose the topmost fiducial mark in the lensgrid_a0.pdf file, which is close to an edge that will be cropped. Hopefully there will be sufficient others for the chart orientation feature to work. Many thanks, Peter

I'm not sure why, but I can't see the contents of my original post when I open it so I'm trying again! Hi, I have printed out the A0 lensgrid target and I'm using it with a micro four thirds camera / lens, which has an aspect ratio of 4:3 = 1.333. The A0 chart has an aspect ratio of 1.41 so I can either: 1 - fill the screen top to bottom and loose some of the chart at the sides 2 - fill the screen side to side and have gaps at the top and the bottom of the frame Is one of the above the advised approach...

Video NativeHelpers - Change strcpy to secure equivalent strcpy_s to remove compiler security warnings
-
Automatic Leap Seconds and Delta UT1 - Further updates.
-
Driver Templates - Change the in-process C# driver template to have a fixed assmeblyversion number (6.4.0.0) rather than a continually incrementing one (6.4.*) which is leading to COM registration mayhem. This aligns it with all the other project types in C# and VB
-
Telescope Simulator - Revise TrackingRates.Dispose so that calling it from one instance doesn't destroy the global object that is used by all instances of the TrackingRates class.
-
NOVAS - Make PInvoke calls private
-
Twilight - Correct spelling error throughout Platform - twighlight ==> twilight.
-
Driver Templates - Change the Template Wizard assembly version to 6.0.0.0 and match this in the MyTemplate.vstemplate files. The 6.0.0.0 assembly version number should not be changed in future releases of Platform 6.

Commit missing TaskScheduler NuGet package.
-
Platform Solution - Remove the EarthRotationUpdate project from the MakeDynamicLists build configuration.
-
Commit files missing from the repository.
-
ASCOM.Astrometry - Moved EarthRotationParameters class into its own file. Further work on automated update.
-
Project files - Fix small issues with the Debug build configurations so that I can set breakpoints in code running inside VS.
-
Provide old Platform 5 Astrometry component with its own copy of DeltaTCalc so that the Platform 6 code can diverge and move forward.
-
Transform - Revert incorrect changes to GetJDUTCSofa and GetJDTTSofa made in the previous commit.
-
Platform Globalisation - Changes to all projects to enable ASCOM specific rule checking. At present the only ASCOM rules enabled are those that report globalisation issues.
-
Safety Commit - Work in Progress...
-
Profile Explorer - Remove unnecessary message box left over from development testing that appeared when deleting values.
-
TraceLogger - Add LogFilePath property so that the base log directory for log files can be changed while retaining automatic day based sub directories and automatic time based filenames. Add IdentifierWidth property that allows the width of the Identifier field to be specified at run time to values other than the default 25 characters.
-
RemoveASCOM - Add timeout on running uninstallers so that they will not lock up RemoveASCOM indefinitely.
-
DriverAccess.Telescope - Fix typo - minimim should be minimum.
-
ASCOM.Utilities - Fixes to make string comparisons locale insensitive. In the Platform some use is made of string matching which involves making strings upper case. It has recently been uncovered that the Latin letter "i" is turned into a "dotted i" when translated to upper case in the Turkish locale and this causes matches to fail when matching against a "dotless i". This is particularly the case with the file location descriptor format FILE:///C:\...
-
Branch to test fixes for Turkish dotted i issue.
-
Diagnostics - Remove false error reports in HA/RA/Dec/Az/El tests that occurred if these values happened to be close to zero.Mark all methods as private. Add tests to ensure that debug test flags are switched off in production builds.

-
Platform and Build infrastructure - Further changes to simplify the build. CLSCompliant.cs and CLSCompliant.vb links removed in favour of specific entries in each project.
-
Version Numbering - Several components have been up-levelled to version 6.4 and will now incorporate Platform build file version numbers.
-
Help - Change version from 6.3 SP1 to 6.4 because we no longer need 6.3.SP1 because MS have fixed the DCOM issued introduced in their security updates.
-
Build Process - Revised build script to copy the IA ASCOM customised shared strings to the IA program directory. Not clever but its the way that IA expects things to work unfortunately.
-
Installers - Commit the Translated InstallAware Shared Strings so that they can be copied into the C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallAware X6 Creators Update\trans folder on the build machine
-
Platform Installer - Commit missing shared translation strings file.
-
Platform Installer - Replace InstallAware messaging with ASCOM messaging through the translation tool

IFocuser - Revise IFocuser.Move documentation to reflect the January 2018 ASCOM-Talk discussion majority view that no exception should be thrown if the focuser can move safely while temperature compensation is active.
-
Diagnostics - Add option setting to automatically open the diagnostic log. Routine that undertakes the diagnostic run renamed to more the descriptive "RunDiagnostics". Some controls renames to more descriptive names. Diagnostics can now be run by pressing the F5 key as well as by pushing the Run Diagnostics button. Added further tests for permitted and invalid get/set method combinations e.g. set as a double object and read back as an integer object or set as a double value and read back as a...
