           Summary: Inconsistent day/night boundary (terminator)
           Product: marble
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: marble-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: toddrme2 at gmail.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

In Marble, there is the ability to shade the areas of the globe that are in
night to make them appear to be in shadow.  However, the terminator, the border
between the day area and night area, is inconsistent.  In the Earth maps that
support it, as well as Venus, the border is a smooth gradient from light to
dark.  However, in the Mars map and all of the moon maps, the border is abrupt,
with on point being totally in day and the other being totally in night.  I
personally prefer the smooth gradient, it is much more realistic, but I think
it would be better to pick one or the other and use it for all maps.
