Detailed Description

The Navigational Stars plugin marks a set of navigational stars.

The NavStars class is the main class of the plug-in. It manages the list of navigational stars and manipulate show/hide markers of them. Markers are not objects!

The plugin is also an example of a custom plugin that just marks existing stars.

Configuration

The plug-ins' configuration data is stored in Stellarium's main configuration file (section [NavigationalStars]).

◆ addExtraInfo

void NavStars::addExtraInfo ( StelCore core)
slot

Adds StelObject::ExtraInfo for selected object.

◆ configureGui()

virtual bool NavStars::configureGui ( bool  show)
virtual

This is to be used with plugins to display a configuration dialog from the plugin list window.

Parameters
showif true, make the configuration GUI visible. If false, hide the config GUI if there is one.
Returns
true if the module has a configuration GUI, else false.

Reimplemented from StelModule.

◆ deinit()

virtual void NavStars::deinit ( )
virtual

Deinitialize all OpenGL texture in this method.

Reimplemented from StelModule.

◆ draw()

virtual void NavStars::draw ( StelCore core)
virtual
Parameters
corethe core to use for the drawing

Reimplemented from StelModule.

◆ getCallOrder()

virtual double NavStars::getCallOrder ( StelModuleActionName  actionName) const
virtual
Parameters
actionNamethe name of the action for which we want the call order
Returns
the value defining the order. The closer to 0 the earlier the module's action will be called

Reimplemented from StelModule.

◆ init()

virtual void NavStars::init ( )
virtual

If the initialization takes significant time, the progress should be displayed on the loading bar.

Implements StelModule.

◆ loadConfiguration()

void NavStars::loadConfiguration ( void  )

This will be called from init and also when restoring defaults (i.e. from the configuration dialog / restore defaults button).

◆ oneRowTwoCells

const QString &  b,
const QString &  extra,
bool  tabulatedView 
)
slot
Parameters
QStringa The cell left value
QStringb The cell right value
Returns
QString The representation of the extraString info.

◆ restoreDefaultConfiguration()

void NavStars::restoreDefaultConfiguration ( void  )

This means clearing out the NavigationalStars section in the main config.ini (if one already exists), and populating it with default values.

◆ update()

virtual void NavStars::update ( double  deltaTime)
virtual
Parameters
deltaTimethe time increment in second since last call.
