<p>The “Choose stars” dialog is used to select variable, comparison and check stars. This information
is required to make a light curve. One can also assign tags to objects, e.g. GSC numbers, these tags
are printed on displayed and exported charts.</p>

<span id="index-2"></span><span id="id2"></span><h2>Tags<a class="headerlink" href="#tags" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Any object on the reference frame can have user-defined short string, so called <cite>tag</cite>. Tags are
used to provide additional identification to objects on an exported charts. For example, when
you assign a tag with GCVS name to your variable star; the caption ‘var’ and the GCVS name will
be printed on the chart next to the star. Please note, that objects that are not selected can
have tags, too.</p>
<p>Tags are stored to a <a class="reference internal" href="catalog_files.html#catalog-files"><em>catalog file</em></a> and they are loaded to the project when
you use the catalog file as a reference frame in the <a class="reference internal" href="match_stars_dialog.html#match-stars-dialog"><em>matching</em></a> step.</p>
