Re: Results coordinate system, is there a default off?
Erik, You're talking about turning off the Coordinate Systems in the Visibilities window permanently with a config option (shown below). I don't know if any way to do this, as I have searched for it...

You're right Steven, that's the one I would like to turn of using a config option (or for that matter: an Environment setting or whatever).Can you ask them? Would be great. Erik
