I'm unable to configure dashes B and C with different pids and save those pages. They reopen alike, as the last one I saved. The initial version worked for me?

It may be because you have saved you dashboard with a new name, and you have dashboards and pid file names linked.

There is a setting in the Properties window, Options->Link PIDs and Dashboards.

If that is checked then each time a new PID file is loaded (including when EFILive starts), if a dashboard filename can be found that matches the PID filename then it will be loaded.

So if you load your own dashboard, but leave the PID selection file as "Default Imperial.PID" then EFILive will load the Default Imperial dashboard instad of the one you have been editing.

You can see the names of the dashboard and dashpage in the status bar at the bottom of the screen each time your mouse enters the dashboard area.

I recommend setting up a matching PID selection filename for each different dashboard that you create.

If that is not the problem let me know.

I was able to get the pids I selected to save in dash A and B by selecting new chart locations?
