Summary0001173: ASCOM Telescope Interface window is HUGE
DescriptionI find the "ASCOM Telescope Interface" initialization window, when launching telescope control, is far too large, for the information that is presented. That requires more steps, time, and patience, to trim the window down to the panel size, so it doesn't take up about 90% of SKYCHART's window area. Although it then stays at user adjusted size during the current session, it reverts to full chart screen size on the next run.

You could fit eight Interface Panels into that window!
Suggest cropping the window to just the ASCOM Interface panel - unless it is required to be that large to accomodate other telescope interface programs besides ASCOM.
Steps To ReproduceClick on Telescope menu bar icon
Additional InformationAn emailed reply from Ray Graylak, creator of the ASCOM driver for Astro Physics mounts, said that his driver does not launch this window - SKYCHART does. Needs to be fixed in SKYCHART.
