Description

Hello!

I am trying to obtain more than three decimals with smartpca. I am using the fsthiprecision option that theoretically gives six, but it still gives me the same output as by default. Could you please help me?

INPUT PARAMETERS
genotypename: input.ped
snpname: input.map
indivname: input.ped
evecoutname: PCA.evec
evaloutname: PCA.eval
altnormstyle: NO
numoutevec: 10
numoutlieriter: 0
familynames: NO
fstonly: YES
fsthiprecision: YES
maxpops: 200
phylipoutname: out.fst

My smartpca version is 13050.

Thanks in advance!

André

Research direction

Reproduce the report with smartpca version 13050 using the listed parameters and input.ped/input.map, focusing on fsthiprecision and the out.fst output. Trace where smartpca formats FST values and verify that enabling the option produces six decimal places; done means the output differs from the default three-decimal format.
