Stepping through stellations

It's easy enough to step through the stellations of a base figure one at a time in Great Stella, but is it possible to move through them more quickly? For example, is it possible to jump ahead in the succession of stellations 20 or 30 or more? Or to go straight to the the 80th one? For figures with small numbers of stellations, this isn't an issue, but for ones with larger numbers it would seem there are stellations that are almost inaccessible if you can't do this.

No, it goes one at a time. You can hold down the up-arrow though to continuously move through them.

Another thing you can do is start by selecting one or more cells you want, and it will try to continue from there.

Going 20 at a time, or any other fixed number, wouldn't help much. There are often trillions of stellations or far more.
