[Kstars-devel] About drawing on the sky map

[Alessio Sangalli]

Hi, I was on kstars' irc channel but there is not much activity. I'm 
learning Qt to be able in the future to halp or add some feature to kstars.

I was wondering, before digging in the source code, which kind of 
graphical shapes and objects it's possible to display on the sky map. I 
know that a QPainter object can also draw Bezier curves; is it possible 
to do so in kstar's window?



Another thing:
few weeks ago I was saying on the irc channel that I would like to find 
the way to display satellite passes on kstars. I've found the "predict" 
program that could be very interesting for this purpose:

I want to see if there is a way to create a kstars module to display 
satellite passes using this program :)

Thank you
