Shorepower to be displayed in VRM overview

I've got Victron system on my boat. I have separate Phoenix Smart Inverter and Phoenix Smart Charger as separate devices. also I have ET112 connected to CerboGX using ve.Direct cable to USB and AC input1 is set to "Shore power".
AC Input in VRM is shown "-":

it does show the graph and the value if I hover over:
here the state is that mostly everything is off, just network (Router, N2K, CerboGX) is on (so 20W DC load; Shorepower connected and charging the battery. solar panels are not connected as boat is in hangar. Inveter is off.

any ideas if I could get the "AC Input" value showing Watts in the overview?
I'm running latest beta 3.30~13, but I don't think this relates to beta OS.

I don't think that will work, the dash seems to assume you have a multi/quattro in order to work properly. There have been similar posts before on the subject iirc.

thanks! I wanted to confirm it's not my config. I can live with that, but of course would be nice to see on overview. on a boat I would use either shorepower or inverter not both, so I can look at the AC Load indicator.

I did search before posting, but could not find confimation to my case, maybe just not having enough experience yet with the system.
thanks again!
