Ok, I know this subject has been pummeled to death, but i'm looking at an stc file and i want to know what does what:

# V380 Ori
300005 {
RA 84.119
Dec -6.073
Distance 1500
SpectralType "A2Ia"
AppMag 10.5
}

If anyone could help me (and maybe include the defaults for our sun so I can base my star off it) it would be greatly appricated. Thanks! :mrgreen:

Well, here's what I got so far:

300010 {
RA 84.119
Dec -234.073
Distance 500
SpectralType "G1V"
AppMag 12.5
}

All I need to know is how to change the size from 0.44 to 1.18
anyone know?
