Home Button? was created by Peter Kennett

Is there a way to add a "Home" button to the EKOS Mount page?
There is a PARK but no HOME button. Many of us have the PARK position different than HOME, But Home is what works best for Polar Alignment.
(I know there is a Home button in the INDI panel, but I do not keep that up all the time)

I second that, and would like to propose an additional one:
A custom Alt Az position to go to.
From this rationale:
One of my setups has no view to polaris, but polar aligning can be done very well off-axis. To do so, I would start at always the same Alt AZ position. It's a tight field of view, so it takes a bit of guessing what works there.
A custom Alt-Az position would be great for this!

Cheers,
Bart

Yes my vote also, as the paramount requires homing on first startup. I usually go into TheSkyX to do it, but it would be nice to be able to do it from the Ekos screen.
