This is a list of issues and feature requests we're having with Aladin Lite for the implementation of http://gamma-sky.net A collection of questions (things we weren't able to figure out by ourselves) and notes of things we'd like to discuss with Thomas

Issues

  • Is it possible to display a local HiPS that has only order 0, 1 or 2 (it works for 3, but not lower order?)
  • There's some drawing bugs with the Fermi color image at low resolution (lines between tiles, and some tiles at the edges missing in the default SIN projection)

Bug reports

#1: Incorrect symbol in Aladin-Lite FOV label

But I don't see this bug on Aladin Lite's website. Has this been fixed in a more recent version of Aladin Lite?

#2: Cannot read property '0' of null

This error message appears on gamma-sky.net and Aladin Lite's website. I've noticed it when you pan any image, while the FOV is zoomed out to ~180° (i.e. I didn't notice this issue when zoomed in on a survey.)

#3: Cannot read property 'style' of null

This error message appears on gamma-sky.net and Aladin Lite's website. It happens when you pan the map using a double-click with the mouse.

Feature requests

  • Can we control the order of the list of images the user can select?
  • Instead of being limited to the default surveys in the list of images, can we select any survey available on the CDS HiPS list, perhaps using a search bar?
  • Can we set a custom local HiPS map as the default image?
  • Is it better to use an allsky JPEG or a low HiPS order?
