Discovering Version 3

(2022-05-23, 07:01 PM)Sailoog Wrote: - the "charts" directory is now created by OpenCPN when you install o-charts

- OpenCPN connection was never created in previous versions in GPSD, just signal k. You do not need to set a connection to GPSD in OpenCPN, you need just the connection to Signal k

thanks for testing

1 - The connection to GPSD is needed to let user benefit from :
- GPSD clients
- the GNSS status in the dashboard display
- the NMEA window in the "Connections" pannel.
- more generally it allows to share the GNSS data between users
Opening both SignalK and GPSD connections (the latest with a priority set to "0"  to avoid any loop) allows to reach these benefits.
In version 2, making a connection to GPSD automatically created (silently) another connection to SignalK. It was not the case in V3 beta ...

2 Chart directory created by installing o-charts : I could'nt find how to install o-chats. Please, could you give a clue ?
