Make star scales in Ocular view configurable

Hi!

Is it possible to change the default value of the stars when I use the ocular? It always is 0.75 and 0.6 when ocular is activated and I have to change it manually each time.

Can I change so it is another value every time I change to ocular, or so it keeps my star values I already have when I do not use ocular? Thank you.

This is indeed hardcoded in Oculars.cpp, line 2329-30. Should be made configurable, at least in config.ini, better also in the plugin GUI.

The code for automatic tuning star scales of the view through ocular/CCD has been removed in revision 9102 of trunk: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~stellarium/stellarium/trunk/revision/9102

Please check this issue on version 0.90.0.9115: https://launchpad.net/stellarium/trunk/0.90.0

I see the option of two separate settings has vanished entirely. It is consistent now, but the added value of smaller star images in the ocular has vanished.

The "fix" was just removal of the existing feature for which an optimization was requested. I reactivate and try my luck.

Trunk r9292 should solve the original request.
