Head's up: Dynon gauge scales reversed, known bug

Been playing with my engine, I'm an analogue guy in a digital world and they other day I noticed the oil pressure was in the yellow arc at 58 psi when it should have been green (Rotax 914, green from 29-73 psi). Checked my entries and they were all correct, emailed Dynon and received this reply. I did what they said and it's all fine now:

Hi Steve,
I believe you've run into a bug that has to deal with the widget styles. More than one of your EMS widgets appears to have the same issue. The color bands are mirrored in orientation from (flipped horizontally) from where they should be for needle movement. The numbers and the number highlights should match your defined ranges, but the color band is flipped.
The simplest short term solution is to revisit the EMS Layout Editor, and change the STYLE of the radial gauge to another and you'll likely find the color bands appear in the correct position. Repeat the process for widgets that are also incorrect.
I know we're aware of some widget issues, but this email will serve as a reminder they still need to be corrected.

Thank you for inquiring.

Let me know if you come up with any other questions.

Kind regards,

Dynon
