Hello,

There is a problem with images taken with SIPS.  The DATE-OBS does not include the time, and therefore the date part is not terminated by the letter T. The regexp at line 234 of WCSmetadata fails (causing a NullPointerException on data like

DATE-OBS: '2012-03-20'

Here is the problematic line
      var match = timeStr.match("'?([0-9]*)-([0-9]*)-([0-9]*)T");

I patched it like
      var match = timeStr.match("'?([0-9]*)-([0-9]*)-([0-9]*)[T']");
which solves the problem in my case (but will not work if the date is not terminated by a quote or a T)

Clear skies

I am aware of this problem. The Calibration script modifies the Array object and Annotation doesn´t like it. I have already fixed the problem and the next time that I release a version it should work without problems. The next version will take a few days since I am in an emergency mode at work.
I will try to fix also the problem with non-standard DATE-OBS fields.

[Andres.Pozo]

I have a new version of both AnnotateImage and ImageSolver.  Externally there are not big changes but I have done a refactoring for improving the design and sharing of code between both scripts.

The changes in this version are:

• Both: Adds support for saving the parameters as an icon.
• Both: It can be used with an image container.
• Both: When Reset is pressed now it is not necessary to reopen the script.
• Both: Fixed problem with incomplete values in DATE-OBS
• ImageSolver: The algorithm stops when the number of iterations is reached or the delta between iterations is less than 0.1 pixels.
• AnnotateImage: Better grid spacing.

With this version I have a better base for continue adding functionality.
I will add custom catalogs as described some days ago.
I will also add the possibility of inserting one or more text layers. The text will be combination of free text and variables (%DATEOBS, %COORDS, %ROTATION, %RESOLUTION, %FOCAL, ...) I.e.: "(C)Andrés del Pozo, %DATEOBS [%RESOLUTION arcsec]". It will be possible to select where to place the text and its graphics properties.

Edited for removing an obsolete version. Please use the last version.

Hi,

Thank you very much, Andrés.

Another suggestion. Now you can choose the grid density. For me it's more logical to choose the grid spacing (in angle) than the grid density.

Vicent.

The reason for using the density value is that it adapts automatically to different resolutions. Also, it is necessary only one value. For defining the grid using an spacing would be necessary to choose both the values for RA and Dec and also the units of the values (hour or minutes or seconds for RA and degrees or minutes or seconds for Dec). I will add this capability but I think that it is not a priority right now.

is anyone else using pixinsight on osx (x86-64) and has this working? still does not work for me.

[Enzo De Bernardini]

Amazing work Andres, thanks!!

Hi

Thanks for your hard work

Hi Andrés; I have tried today your scripts and I they are wonderful; they add an important functionality for us. Thanks you!

Andrés, congratulations on a great work very useful for all of us.
Un gran abrazo,

I just got pixinsight because I heard about / saw results of your plug-in. You, sir, have made a major impact on astrophotography, you should be very proud of your work. The annotation feature is pure magic, thank you soo much for sharing

Same here...

I think that you not have installed the last version of PixInsight with the last updates. The script requires the version 01.07.05.0779 with all the updates.
