How do you increase the font size or label an object so that when you zoom out you can still see where it is in relation to the constellation? I've seen many videos that do this but can't seem to find a font increase or label feature. What would you advise? Thank you!

The Stellarium location window does, in fact, accept decimal coordinates.

Good vid, right o info. Can you answer this? I am a newbie! I think I understand, that directions in the cosmos? are backwards? but it's not solid in my head yet, What I want to know is, "when you are seeing the stars in Stellerium , when you have put your location in, it shows where your house is, on the screen it comes up with S (for south?) is this the actual south from my house? The front of my house is facing north, back of my house facing south, if it says S on the screen, do I have to go to the back of my house to see the stars displayed? Am a bit confused with this?
