This version has taken a bit longer as our resources have been tied into a big custom project. We hope to get back on normal track within next few weeks.

Microsoft Store is notoriously slow on showing the updates. Update is there and published by Microsoft. It may take some time before it shows for all users.

6

last month and previous week the 2.5.8 also not updated, that’s why the current install app still 2.5.7

7

Interestingly your screenshot shows change log for 2.5.9, so maybe it is updated already? Last Updated entry could be a bug of some sort in Microsoft Store.

No it isn’t updated, even the manual download from https://store.rg-adguard.net/ still outdated file

There’s an issue with the color settings in the new version compared to the previous ones. When the Color Setting Opacity is set to Normal & Warning = 25 and Critical = 255 for Value 2, the correct (Value 2) image gauge should appear. However, in the latest version, the Value 1 image gauge is shown instead.

I tested it by adding a temporary gauge value adjustment (v+1), which made it work as before — but this is only a workaround, not the correct behavior.

here’s the test sample https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/e8tdt23h66bbp557ixsb3/realdash-color-issue-v2.5.92-test.rd?rlkey=ixkmai2blc8621gfo46pcky76&st=p4uqflya&dl=0

Yes, on old version warning and critical were ‘Equal or Above’. In latest version its ‘Above’. In our testing this did not have effect to our dashboards.

This was changed with new ‘Vehicle Specific Warning’ system, as it kind of a made sense to have ‘Above’ instead of ‘Equal or above’.

EDIT: Reports coming in that this change will affect quite a lot of existing dashboards. I’m going to revert it and upload 2.5.9-3.

Reverted. 2.5.9-3 was been uploaded to Microsoft Store and Google Play. It may take couple of hours to appear.
