SGP Saving target events?
If there is a way to do this and I ever knew it, I've forgotten... I have a standard series of exposures that I take for LRGB images and another for HaLRGB images. I have standard exposure times and binning factors for each filter. Is there any way to save these per-target settings for re-use?
It seems silly to have to check Run 5 times, select the same 5 filters, select the same 5 exposure times, the same 5 binning factors, and often the same 5 Repeat counts, when they don't change from one target to the next.
I could save a boilerplate sequence, I suppose, but I thought I'd check if there was a feature I'd overlooked.

Re: SGP Saving target events?
I'm in the same boat, when starting a new target the sequence is always the same that I use but always have to find each filter, add 30 exposures, add suffix ectt.
I'm sure one could load an old sequence with those settings then make a new one then just copy them each time.

Re: SGP Saving target events?
You can duplicate events from one target to another within a sequence, but you can't copy events from a different sequence.
I made up a dummy sequence with four unspecified targets, and a full set of HaLRGB frames with my standard exposure times for each target. I saved it, so in future, I can call it up, populate the target settings, and save it as a real sequence.
