6.2.3 Filtering stars and nebulae by their brightness

set faintest_cluster_magnitude magnitude

Parameter

Don't print open star clusters that are fainter than magnitude. Default: 4.0

set faintest_diffuse_nebula_magnitude magnitude

Parameter

Don't print nebulae that are fainter than magnitude. In this case, `nebulae' is meant in the narrower sense, i.e. no stellar clusters. Default: 8.0

set faintest_star_magnitude magnitude

Parameter

Don't print stars that are fainter than magnitude. Default: 7.0

set faintest_star_with_label_magnitude magnitude

Parameter

Only stars that have a brightness of at least magnitude get an automatically generated label. Default: 3.7

set faintest_star_disk_magnitude magnitude

Parameter

Only stars that have a brightness of at least magnitude will be printed as more than just dots. Default: 4.5

set minimal_star_radius radius

Parameter

Set the radius (in centimetres) of the dots that are used for the faintest stars. Default: 0.015
