- All Users
-
- Q) Is there any sound in RedShift?
-
- A) No. RedShift simulates the experience of viewing the sky through a
- telescope. It does not provide background music. Video clips show the
- standard speaker icon as defined for QuickTime. It is greyed out to
- indicate that sound is not available
-

-
- Q) I want to see the view from the Earth's surface but the Horizon
- View command is dimmed
-
- A) Horizon View is only available if you are on the surface of a
- planet or moon. Use the Location control to switch to a surface location.
- Horizon View and Equatorial View correspond to alternative systems for
- telescope alignment. Both are available when viewing from a planetary
- surface. From other locations in space Horizon View is meaningless and is
- therefore disabled
-

-
- Q) How do I get back to the surface from a location in space?
-
- A) If either the Follow Planet or Position control panels is open,
- close it to leave the special mode
- Use the Location control panel to switch to a location on a planet or moon
- or, select the Default Settings command from the Controls menu to return to
- the start up location
