Just in case this hasn't been pointed out yet....
Sirius and Procyon are not among the labeled stars.
The problem is that in the Celestia.cfg file they are referred to as "Sirius" and "Procyon" and not "Sirius A" and "Procyon A".
Something similar seems to be true for Rigel Kentaurus. Adding "Rigel Kentaurus A" to the list gets it labeled.
I'm using version 1.4.1 downloaded a few months ago.
Thanks for your time

This problem is 'fixed' in v1.5.0.
Labelling of Stars is handled quite differently in v1.5.0: the stars with the brightest visual magnitude are labelled rather than using a fixed list.
Of course, this causes problems for situations where a fixed list would be preferable. A workaround is to generate one's own list using DSC OpenCluster declarations.
