Hi Tomas,

I just wanted to update but noticed that there is a difference in the source lists.

And my file is called rexcontrols-rex.list and does contain the source list.
rexcontrols-rex.list_file.PNG
I have no idea why this is a different filename, but nevertheless I thought it might be good to have this pointed out as possible situation for other users as well.

@rexpeter Hi Peter,

thanks for your feedback. You are absolutely right. I have corrected my previous post according to your proposal.

I got stuck in previous version of our installation script.

Sorry for the confusion.

Kind Regards,
Tomas

@cechurat Is it already a good idea to try this out on a Linux system (Debian / not RasPi)?

cechurat

@apollo At this time we are not aware of any issue on any of supported platforms. However it is still considered as a Beta version.

@cechurat All working fine it seems....

By the way, thus this version already includes the external-svg feature which you mentioned in following topic : https://forum.rexygen.com/topic/193/user-menu-with-custom-html-object/3

cechurat

@apollo Yes, it does include the External SVG feature - sorry for not sending you a heads up.
