	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.

	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. --- Last Edited by Dingo at 2020-05-02 06:27:48 --- --- Last Edited by Dingo at 2020-05-02 06:50:43 --- --- Last Edited by Dingo at 2020-05-02 07:12:37 ---

Spoke to matai, there was a bug in last version, which he's now fixed..will be updated soon. meantime, the previous version works okay 5.9.7 P2. --- Last Edited by Dingo at 2020-05-02 08:02:52 --- --- Last Edited by Dingo at 2020-05-02 08:15:25 ---

	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 Kipper1258 said @ 2020-04-28 04:15:39: 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. --- Last Edited by seeUlater at 2020-05-06 16:33:32 --- Attachments Screen_Shot_2020-05-06_at_12.24.51_2.png (72.9 KB) Shell.rtf (2.1 KB)
