Thanks @rlancaste! This is great to have PHD2 well integrated with Ekos!

Yes, this is what I mean. That's how I did my tests I posted here. I either removed the guider from the profile in Ekos or I went one step forward and made it not served by INDI at all. The PHD2 star images, graphs, and guiding results I implemented in the last week will come through with or without the guide camera being connected.

This is awesome. A few months ago, I started working on a PHD2 interface for the MGen Autoguider, that would provide correction and frame messages like a regular PHD2 installation would, from indiserver. While I interrupted that activity to cut wood for my backyard obs, I'll follow this up. I had found Ekos a bit difficult to talk with at the time :)

I just added a new feature to the guide module. The drift plot. By the way, even though this is running with PHD2, it works with the internal guider as well.

WOW! Thank you Rob.

If only my mount works tonight. It is back from warranty work, and well... twice last night it went off into la-la-land. Hopefully tonight it will work and I can get to use this.

Cheers!

Note the change is not pushed to GIT yet, but it should be within a short time. Do you pull your KStars version from the GIT repository, do you get it from the PPA, or do you use a Mac or Windows DMG/Installer? It will take longer to get it to the PPA than GIT, and the Mac/Windows installers will probably not be updated for a day or two.

The Mac dmg on the website is now the latest version. It includes the added phd2 support and the drift plot in guiding

So after I have done quite a bit of work in the last couple of weeks, I think the enhanced phd2 support and improved guiding graphics are now finished. They are now on the latest git on GitHub, but the PPA, the Mac DMG, and the windows version will be a few more days away. If anybody who is building from source could test the changes I have been making to PHD2, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

This seems to be a Qt version issue, on my x64 Ubuntu 17.10 with Qt 5.9.1 it compiles, but on Raspberry Pi Ubuntu 16.04 with Qt 5.5.1 I get this same error.

More than likely it is a compiler specific issue with the way the method was declared. I can ask Jasem what needs to be changed.

No jpaana is correct. I just googled it. It does appear to be a QT version issue. Maybe we can change the code slightly and make it work with older qt versions.
