--- Comment #2 from Jean-Claude <jcjesior at free.fr> ---
Hello Hy and thanks for the reply,

I confirm my bug report . I’ll give more explanations + screenshots.
I followed the indications found in
https://knro.blogspot.com/2023/10/kstars-v367-is-released.html
<https://knro.blogspot.com/2023/10/kstars-v367-is-released.html>

1/ Before starting KStars I added a small .jpeg size 141 KB (1000x648 px) in a
folder imageOverlays found in the kstars folder.
The path of this folder is /Users/JCJ/Library/Application
Support/kstars/imageOverlays





2/ I started KStars. On macOS, you should go to the menu KStars >
Preferences... to open a dialog named Configure (by the way this dialog should
be also named Preferences).




3/ In the dlg Configure I selected Image Overlays



4/ As you can see : 0 image files located

I hope this helps !
