With this version, the orbits of all planets and satellites are displayed along with the moon. At the same time, controls have been added to adjust the font settings of all texts that may appear in the dome. In addition, the display of the rings of Uranus and Neptune was provided.

In addition, enhancement has been made to ensure full compatibility with Shira Presenter as a content manager option.

  

The most significant improvement in this release was the remote web control tool feature. OpenSpace 0.18.1 release bug pack and Shira Presenter 1.5 release pack have been updated.
Made some minor bug fixes.

The "Remote Web Control" tool, which can be used with IPAD or Android tablets, includes a very performant Joystick.
To activate, enable it from the settings menu.

To download and test.

Shira Presenter included an excellent media playback infrastructure. This excellence is combined with OpenSpace's excellent control base. No code changes were made in the OpenSpace program. New features have been added for planetarium use thanks to the asset development and addition feature.
Shira Dome Console works in online mode by default. So a live internet connection is required.  When the program is run for the first time, approximately 6 GB of OpenSpace data will be downloaded. It takes between 30-60 minutes depending on the internet speed.
