It appears that integrated GPS devices on Windows 8 e.g. on Windows tablets are accessible via the Windows Location API and not via a Com port (this applies to Win 8 Pro as well as RT).

As such this means you can't use skydemon with such integrate GPS devices since this only works through com port access.

Are there any plans to support the Windows Location API.

Do you know if this is a windows 8.1 feature? I'm sure when I first tried SD on my win 8 tablet, it found the GPS hardware ok. Now in 8.1 it doesn't find it, because of what you have explained. Unfortunately I have just bought SD, never checked it with Windows 8.1.




Please can SD be updated to sort the new API?
