Hello,
Seems like there is a mismatch between values of Apparent Diameter (of the planets and the Moon) on the main screen and Angular Size shown in Astronomical calculations, though in absence of atmosphere it shall apparently be the same.

This happens both on Windows and Linux versions, both checked on 24.1 and 24.3.

Screenshots for the Moon and Jupiter cases attached.

Thanks.

Interesting. Maybe Jupiter's mismatch is explained by equatorial vs. polar diameter. But yes, this should be harmonized.
