Summary: What Happened?
Review: I wish I'd first read the other reviews here. I though a Version 4 should include and improve on the features of version 3. It seems half the things in version 3 that I really liked, have been removed (such as being able to indivdualy zoom objects), and in return what do we get, multiple views and a few more stars... Well at least I now have a full collection of all 4 versions of redshift..

Summary: NO! They ruined it!
Review: Redshift 3 was, hands down, the you-know-what in this software category. It was near-perfection! They have brought it down to the garden variety of its competitors. I will stay with Redshift 3! BTW, I am a PhD in astronomy, so if I seem upset, please see the other posts. I am not alone. This is its competitor with the little squeaky hand, not the great Redshift we have come to know and love. Navigation is terrible, and frames change settings with views. I am going to be ill. Excuse me. Nooooo!
