You have to go into the settings and tell it to use the circles as the " found object marker ".

EDIT: You can also print out finder charts from this program.

Location: Sand springs Okla.		If you have an Ipad you can get Starwalk for 5 bucks. It has a Telrad option that works with the zoom feature.

Location: Marysville,Wa 48.07N-122.21W		Oh, I should have mentioned SKEYE. Harshad has developed the first smart phone app that can be used as an ALIGNABLE digital setting circle!!
You can add alignment stars to really fine tune the accuracy.
I helped him debug on my Android 2.
Only available for the Android platform. Try it , you'll like it.
Also this guy really listens to user input, so you can have a hand in developing changes and improvements.
The free version is great, but the paid version ( $12 I think ) has the full NGC catalog.
