Bob, All fixed for you: - Release of version 1.1.0
https://github.com/Millardiang/weewx-ecowitt_console_emulator ## [1.1.0] – 2026-10-14 ### Added - Indoor temperature chart on every Charts tab (`inTemp`, mappable in `[[FieldMap]]`): the average on the Day, Week and Month tabs, the daily high and low on the Year tab. - The installer asks whether to show VPD (vapour pressure deficit): yes shows the VPD reading and its chart as before, no leaves both out. `--vpd=y|n` answers it for unattended installs; the answer is stored as `show_vpd` and offered again on reinstall. Existing installations keep VPD. - "Indoor temperature" in all 30 languages. ### Changed - The readings row spreads its readings evenly whatever their number (six when VPD is not shown). - Installing removes the calendar-year chart files (`chart_2025.json` ...), so WeeWX writes them again with the new charts; before, a year's file was never rewritten. - The VPD chart is always in the chart files and left out by the page when VPD is not shown, so changing `show_vpd` takes effect at once on every tab and year. ### Fixed - With one rain gauge, long words in some languages ran into the rain totals or out of the panel: the rate line and the total labels are now fitted to their space, and the Czech, Finnish, Hungarian, Norwegian and Tamil labels there are shorter. - Labels in the readings row could be cut short instead of going onto two lines.
