What's new in X Resource Graph (XRG) 2.5.0

May 18, 2017
  • New condensed display mode for all graphs allows the window to be drawn as a slim bar at the bottom of your screen.
  • Reworked the battery graph. Now shows a larger current capacity bar, and a "watts" bar to show how much power is being used. Reworked the battery remaining estimate to be more accurate now.
  • Switched to a rounded rect window border.
  • Snap to the borders of the screen as well as the midpoint of screen borders.
  • Fixed an overflow bug on the new MacBook Pros, which can read/write to the disk at more than 2GB/sec.
  • Fixed a bug where VRAM usage might not be detected properly on the 2013 Mac Pro.
  • Fixed a bug where the incorrect network transmit bytes were being displayed.
  • Fall back to GART GPU memory usage when memory stats can't be gathered any other way.
  • Fix a bug where graphs would disappear when the window border width was changed.
  • Fixed a display bug for some graph backgrounds when using a transparent window.
  • Use SSL for web stats gathering where possible.
  • Requires OS X 10.7.
