To hide default infos on display

Post #1by wahuwa » 23.11.2010, 17:33

I want to hide all the default infos (FOV, velocity, ecc...) in CELX Touring Scripts. Is there any way to accomplish this task or a specific command function/method?
Example script: NinePlanets, downloaded from motherl....: in Celestia 1.5.0 there are no infos displayed, but in Celesta 1.6.0 they are displayed and I want to get rid of them.
Thanks

Control of what's shown in the "heads-up display" is shown at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Celestia/C ... ayelements

Hi,

Of course it is possible to control the display with a script, as Selden pointed out.

But if you just do not want to see these infos the simplest way is maybe to type "V" until the infos disappear.
:wink:

Centered, Thanks a lot. Another difference in behavior between 1.5.1 and 1.6.0 I noticed: "splitview" in the new version displays a message like "view added" (I have the German version an there the message says: "Ansicht hinzugef?gt". Well, I tried out a workaround to get rid of this, inserting a "celestia:print(...)" command. But I think there are better methods to do that.
