Glenn's Optics Stack

[Thomas McGrath III]

Jon,

Glenn's stack is for figuring out different aspects of using different 
eye pieces with different telescopes. So if you want to know what the 
field of view FOV for a 26 mm Plossi lens then you punch that in and 
you get your FOV etc. Then if you change to a 2x multiplier than you 
will know the new FOV.

The close box works exactly as you describe in the IDE for every stack 
(unless you over ride the close box message). That is normal behavior.
