You cannot detach a panel by drag and drop if Celestia GL (main) window is full screen for example. You can drag but not drop...

6. Not sure what you mean with the Eclipse Finder..?
It's a question of tweaking the width of some columns to reduce the overall default size...

7. Open panels are remembered, this is a feature. If the panels are tool palettes it would make sense, but in this case it's a toss-up. Is this feature really annoying? This is definitely an important point and should be discussed more.
Ok, let's wait some comments.


11. Should we show Hubble type for barred spirals only?
I suppose because for now the other types don't have subtypes...


12. Sorting is hard to do with the current UI, but data filtering by size, magnitude etc could be interesting. Perhaps this ought to be a separate forum thread?

It would be nice to test... so depending of comments, let's open another thread. It can also be a way to discuss more effective browsers for the eventual cross platform UI...

Minor update: I uploaded a build of SuperTabs-enabled Celestia with French & Spanish localizations (get build 2007-08-08 from my unofficial site). No other major changes apart from the localizations.
