Thanks Kipper.
I get agreement in client, AGL, and raw nmea data in QT. It’s just the boats instruments that have integer TWS only. I think it’s therefore a QT problem or I have an incorrect setting somewhere. I will try a new load and see if I get the same then.

2020-05-02 06:27:28 - QT decimal points in wind speed
Same issue here, can you let us know if you find the solution? Cheers.

I have the latest version. I noticed something strange. The wind is currently 7.238knts in AGL, 7.24 in SOL and 7 in qt. However, if I open the polar in qt (from boat settings or clicking on the compass) the TWS is shown as 7.00knts and then if I turn off nmea, it then shows 7.24 knts. I wish I could go back one version of qt to try it there.

Edit: installed 5.9_7 P2 and have decimal points in instruments back.

Well done John,
I have reverted to 5.9-7 as well and now get full TWS.
It was the same on the IOS version as well.
I thought I was going mad with searching strange NMEA settings!

Me too, I thought I was going mad searching the settings. Did discover a hundred other options I'd never looked at before though. :)

Thanks Kipper, and sorry for the delay in replying. Attached the shell log, for the AGL_4_0_2. All I get is a gray flat screen when open the graphic interface. Turned openGL engine on an off but nothing changes.

On a separate question, what is the font you use on the AGL3_2_2? I may have to install it as my machine is showing a hard to read one (see picture attached).

Thanks much

1. seeU, an exception is being thrown by the low level openGL binding that I use, and I have no idea why. Can you please copy the feedback from the shell, drop it into a file and post here. Secondly, try turning off the openGL engine (on the Parameters tab) and see if you get a different result.
