This allows you to limit the number of fixed stars displayed on the star chart by magnitude at the widest chart so that you can prevent the
screen from being full of luminous stars.
Brighter than Mag.8 : Fixed stars of 8th magnitude and brighter are displayed.
Brighter than Mag.7 : Fixed stars of 7th magnitude and brighter are displayed.
Brighter than Mag.6 : Fixed stars of 6th magnitude and brighter are displayed.
Brighter than Mag.5 : Fixed stars of 5th magnitude and brighter are displayed.
Brighter than Mag.4 : Fixed stars of 4th magnitude and brighter are displayed.
The number of the fixed stars is increased up to brighter than 9th magnitude approximately as you zoom in the screen. (The magnitude of the
dimmest stars shown is pre-allocated uniformly in proportion to the level of zooming in or out the screen)
