Hi. I know it’s super easy to come up with lots of wish list ideas - forgive me - kstars/ekos is a fantastic and hugely complex tool.

However - just a thought - could there be the facility to set the guide camera gain when on the guide tab in ekos. The binning and exposure can be set, but gain would be good too.

Also, in the ekos camera tab, when primary train was selected, I could set gain, but then switch to secondary train, reset gain for guide camera, go back to primary, and gain settings were not memorised independently for each optical train. Maybe I’m missing a trick here. Thanks

I’ve a Celestron CPC HD 9.25, ZWO294mcpro main camera and a zwo174mm mini guide camera on a Celestron OAG.

I second this. The initial values in the Gain and Offset fields should mirror the values that are actually active (i.e. the ones that are saved/set in Indi). With the current "--" it is unclear what the actual value might be.
