Drift Align Mode - Rotate Control - PROBLEM

[danielda]

Hi. I downloaded the last version of EOS. When I tried to rotate the crosshairs I realized that it was impossible to do in increments of +0,25 degrees (as said the user´s guide). Can you help me ?https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ydw7b98ol3uo7lr/AAB8XAk9aN5GR2hQIWty4udsa

thank you !!

thank you !!

 

I think it is a bug with having a comma (,) as a decimal point instead of a period (.)

 

I run a few more tests. 

 

In the mean time, if your change your decimal point in Windows to be a period does it work?

Guylain, I don't think it is a bug, but can you code in both usages? In Imperial we use period for decimal point but as you know in Quebec and Europe they use comma.

Dear Guylian... I think that you have created the new release and - finally - you can solve the drift align problem ¿did you? thank you !! Daniel

Did you try it

Hi Guylain. I tried with Imperial mode in Windows but it still have the same error. That is that I can´t rotate an angle with decimals degrees. It works (rotate) without error with entire number..... ¿¿...?? I use W7. Thank for your help !!! regards, Daniel

I have just run bunch of tests and no issues with my Win 8.1 laptop. I could rotate any decimal point at will, like 3.21, 15.01 etc. No hiccups at all. My BYE version is 3.0.3.

Guylain, is it possible that this happens only in Spanish version? I have tried all sorts of angles and it works flawlessly. However, I still didn't find a way to change amount of increment to increase/decrease angles.

No, I think it's a rounding issue because it does rotate whole numbers... which means the decimal point is truncated somehow.  I'll need to put a few traces in code to debug this one.

Thank you Guylain !!... Yesterday night I had been tested bye at Buenos Aires. It´s awesome !! . I took some pics ( ). As you said it rotates only whole nombers (it failes with decimal). Certainly it isn't a great problem because the drift mode only looks for the cardinal point that the star derivates. But I'll be waiting for your solution !!!

Yes, it is solved.  The fix will be in 3.1... which I -hope- to release in July 2014.

BackyardEOS v3.1 is not out yet... still a few weeks at least... probably in July as a release candidate.
