Bug Description

When I used the v. 12 64 bit version I was able to see mutual occultations of Jupiter's moon. The program showed accurately thr shadow of one moon on another. Version 13 does not show shadows of one moon on the other.

Is there aw ay to show this with the current product? If not do you intend to put this feature back? I used it frequently.

By the way Stellarium is a great product and I love it!

Thanks

Hi Fabien

Thank You for Stellarium!! It is a wonderful product and causes lots of enjoyment!!

This 64 bit version (0.13) of Stellarium does not show shadows of moons on another moon like the prior version (0.12) did during a mutual occultation.

Here is one example:

Jupiter's moon Callisto eclipses Ganymede on October 30 and then on October 31, 2014 from Boston, MA.

I captured a video from the 0.12 64 bit version several months ago and it is posted here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcwSG5ycFyE

It clearly shows the shadow of Callisto sweeping over Ganymede twice. The current 64 bit version 0.13 does not.

Anything that you can do to resolve this issue is sincerely appreciated.

Best Regards

Sal

Hi Alexander

The issue with Jupiter;s moons is even worse with 0.13.2.(64 bit) Now the
shadows do not show correctly on Jupiter's atmosphere.

I can create a movie and file a bug report.

Please advise.

Thanks

I guess you meant bug #1405353 but little movie will be helpful in any case.

Hi Alexander

The linked movie shows the problem. When Io is crossing Jupiter the shadow
"snaps" on when Io is well across Jupiter. Europa's shadow does the same
and Callisto's shadow does not even show.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S2g9syeKN0

I hope this helps.

I am using an HP 2000 Notebook 64 bit computer..purchased 1 year ago.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help. (i.e. do I
need to open a new case?)

Best Regards
