Keep related widgets together in a Group on dashboards and overlays. Give the group a label, border, and background, then drag widgets into or out of it on the canvas. Select an item to move, resize, and edit it with the same controls used for other widgets. Groups arrange their contents into rows and columns as their available space changes.
Start from a template and make it yours
Browse dashboard templates in the Library or choose one during creation. The Lap timing template includes eight individual widgets that you can move, resize, replace, or remove. It replaces the old Lap Timing cluster in the widget picker. Existing saved clusters still render.
The template catalog loads once at SimHub startup. Updates to the catalog never overwrite dashboards you have already created.
Make the idle screen your own
Add a logo or other image, drag it into position, and adjust its size. Choose a solid color, gradient, or shader behind it. KPM Sim Kit stores JPG, PNG, WebP, and supported static SVG images locally while preserving transparency. Turning off background animation keeps a still shader visible.

Fixes
- Dashboards Screen changes retain current telemetry and time-loss history instead of showing stale or empty data.
- Telemetry Removed the artificial flat extension at the newest end of the trace and stabilized shift flashes.
- Lap timing An invalid first lap can become the delta reference when no valid reference exists.
- Sectors Previous-lap colors stay tied to the reference used when each sector completed.
- Sectors Personal comparisons reset between qualifying and the race without extra flashes or relabeled splits.
- Sessions Qualifying countdowns continue while valid session time remains, and delayed lap updates no longer duplicate history.
- Time loss Graphs use collected samples and actual sector boundaries without cooldown data overwriting the scored lap.
- Idle screens Custom image uploads update the preview when switching from name and number.
- Mirror overlay Removed sector clipping, flag gaps, and misaligned readouts across themes.
- Groups Child widgets select their own controls and support movement, resizing, and overlapping placement into a group.
- Dashboards Screen tabs can move to the end of the list, and deleting a dashboard returns to the Library.
- Templates Copies no longer inherit the source disabled state or theme, and publishing rejects local-only image references.
