LibreOffice Documentation
I found an article on Friendica announcing a guide for LibreOffice Calc 6.x (spreadsheet).
However further searching, I found a more useful page that links to guides for each of the various LibreOffice modules.
They are doing a really good job with all of this, great to see documentation for software too.

#KSTARS – ASTRONOMY PACKAGE
KSTARS is a Linux based astronomy package. For a free software package it has a lot of features and downloadable catalogues of stellar objects.
When you first load up the package you may want to view the constellation lines. I worked out how to do this, but am including some info below to help users change the line colour from the default light grey as it may be easier for people to see the lines.
If you click on Settings (menu) —> configure —> guides
You should get the following
I have checked the boxes to constellation:-
If you then click on the colours tab at the side
I have set the colour to yellow. This does stand out, probably a little too much. However you can set it to the colour of your choosing or leave as the default grey.
The end result of this is (download):
Hope this helps
