Add a Contrast Reserve subsection to the user guide explaining the upper-right number on the Object Details screen: what it estimates, how it's derived from sky brightness, telescope aperture, and eyepiece magnification, an interpretation table, its prerequisites, and the dedicated page reached with SQUARE. Update the Object Details screenshots (Push-To and catalog details) so the contrast reserve value is visible, and add two annotated figures labelling every region of those two views.

This is almost ready to go, the Claude generated annotations for the object details page need to be re-done by hand |

It did a surprisingly good job, all things considered. I do wonder how much better Fable would be. That would be a cool A/B test! I'll spend a few minutes to make this a little prettier and get this committed 👍 |
…g separators The Object Details screen changed with PR #394 (#394): angular size now shows with a unit (°/′/″), the notes group descriptions by catalog behind labelled separator rules, and catalog images carry NSEW + size overlays. - Recapture object_details_01/02/03, the Contrast Reserve page, and both annotated callout views from the post-#394 screen (C 6, contrast 1.6) - Add a "Catalog separator" callout to the annotated catalog-details view - Explain the labelled catalog-separator rules and unit-aware size in prose Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The headless config had the global mount_type set to EQ, so the push-to lines showed +/- RA-Dec offsets instead of the Alt/Az direction arrows — which also contradicted the "Arrow = turn left/right" annotation labels. - Recapture the push-to screen and its annotated overlay with mount_type Alt/Az, so azimuth/altitude show ◀▶ / ▲▼ direction arrows - Re-shoot the notes and Contrast Reserve pages in the same pass so every page's contrast-reserve reading matches (2.3) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
