Hi,

After updating my RPI3 Ubuntu 16.04 (used as remote server) and PC running FED28/Kstars the Synscan telescope icon no longer moves when the telescope is slewed. Alt/AZ details change in Ekos ok .

closed down powered off and this time just used RPI3 so Kstars running on RPI3 - same thing plus no Camera FOV shown either. Kstars 3.0.0.0 nov 17 2018 01.26 Log attached - cant see anything obvious. RPI3 is using bleeding edge daily.

DSLR camera working ok

Also notice although target may change to selected target while slewing once he target is reached it then always says target is NGC7787 Not sure if that has any bearing on the problem.

as you closed issue 762 on Github I assumed that meant it was cured. Sorry after doing an update/upgrade today 14.00 GMT situation still the same.

Have I jumped the gun and assume too much - i.e. the changes have been made to daily update yet - sorry in advance

OK recompiled synscan icon now appears and tracks BUT it is not playing ball. Example problems :

1. Centre and Track on M31 - then slew - off it goes gets to very nearly the target then starts off in another direction - goes thru the Pole and then comes back round to M31.

2. Centre and track on Moon - slew to moon get close to target then jumps to another co-ordinate see screen print attached - cords are not correct

Sorry I do not understand what you are getting at - the bottom line is that Indi will not goto the correct point in the sky on Kstars - this used to work no problem prior 1.7.5
