Speedometer

Can anyone please enlighten me on how to increase the speed higher than 12 knots. I adjusted it under the "appearance" tab, but it doesn't seem to change the display. Thank you in advance!

Re: Speedometer

Well interesting question when we have no idea what system you are trying to adjust

Can you help us out a bit with more info?

Re: Speedometer

My apologies. I am trying to adjust the speedometer on the dashboard. It is showing a maximum speed of 12 knots and I can’t seem to get it to change even if I change the max speed under the appearance tab.

It works for me if I change it and then close and re-start OpenCPN.
It doesn't change until the re-start.

Since this is the OpenCPN sub-forum and there is only one "speedometer" in OpnCPN as far as I know, it's not hard to tell what the OP is trying to adjust
