Stellarium Users??

Question

How do I find my longitude and latitude coordinates so I can see the sky and find points of interest in my own sky? I am new to Stellarium and could use some advice. I only have one pair of high powered binoculors, so any input or advice is greatly appreciated. How could I most beneift from Stellarium?

Answer 1

Click on the wrench on the toolbar.  Then select location.  There is a world map and you can move the cursor around until you get a location near you.  The set it as default.  I find this hard to do, and would much rather just enter my coordinates, but I don't know if that can be done.
