-If you select this submenu, then Artificial Horizon Manager will be opened.
-Artificial Horizon Manager is used to define on the skymap one or more
-regions that are blocked from view from your current location
-(&ie; tall trees or building). The window is split in two sections:
-in the left side is the Regions section while in the right side is the Points
-section. You can add a new region by pressing the <guibutton>+</guibutton>
-(Add Region) button or you can remove a region by selecting it in the regions
-list and then pressing the <guibutton>-</guibutton> (Remove Region) button.
-In order to draw a region you need to define a list of points that encompasses
-the blocked area. You can add a new point by pressing the <guibutton>+</guibutton>
-(Add Point) button from the right Points section. You can also remove a highlighted
-point from the list of points or you can clear all the points. There are two ways
-to add a new point to a selected region: manually by entering the point's coordinates
-or by selecting the point from the skymap after clicking <guibutton>Select Points</guibutton>
-button. Note that each point is described by a set of horizontal coordinates: Az (Azimuth)
-and Alt (Altitude). If you want to modify a point's coordinates, just double click on its
-Az/Alt text box value and enter the new value. First and Last points must be on the horizon.
-Polygons must be closed to be considered valid regions.
-Artificial Horizon Manager provides a easy way to rename your regions. By default, regions are
-named as: <quote>Region </quote> plus an index (&ie; <quote>Region 1</quote> or <quote>Region 2</quote>).
-For renaming a region, just double click on its name and then you will be invited to
-complete a new region name. You can also control which regions are enabled or disabled for
-marking on the map by a simple click on the checkbox in front of each region. After you
-defined your desired regions you can apply them by pressing the <guibutton>Apply</guibutton>
-button. If you want to use these regions again, in further astronomy sessions, you can save
-them such that next time when you will open &kstars; they will be automatically marked on the skymap.
