Tree details
 
.stellarium360 ~/.stellarium360 hidden directory containing several sub-folders to customize
config.ini ~/.stellarium360  General config file
fscript ~/.stellarium360/fscript directory for scripts called with keys
vidéos ~/.stellarium360/videos directory for video called with keys
audio ~/.stellarium360/audio directory for sounds called with keys
data /usr/local/share/stellarium360/data data directory
scripts /usr/local/share/stellarium360/data/scripts 5 scripts directories
textures /usr/local/share/stellarium360/textures textures directory (deep sky objects, planets,...)
Note: the path ~/ is equivalent to your home directory (/home/planetarium if the users' name is planetarium)

Once installed, some files and directories are accessible only by superuser.
To access to them, including dolphin, you should give the rights to the regular user:

e.g. if your session is called "planetarium"

>su
>chown -R planetarium /usr/local/share/stellarium360

and all files in the directory stellarium360 can be modified with dolphin



Config.ini 

config.ini is a text file containing all the basic settings of stellarium360. the modified version can be immediately an ideal configuration for the planetarium LSS.
