This release focuses on targeted bug fixes and enhancements to enhance system stability and functionality. Major updates include a critical fix for an issue where the panel was getting warmer, potentially affecting temperature measurements, and resolving a crash issue associated with climate entity rendering. Additionally, this update introduces new Dutch/Italian date formats for improved localization, and addresses a minor display issue with the battery indicator on cover pages.
Important
Breaking Change: If you are using the Customization "Set display as a light", please update the code related to the extension to script/set_brightness as the global variable display_last_brightness was replaced by the new sensor current_brightness.
We highly recommend all users update their components to this latest version for an optimized and enhanced user experience. While this update is compatible with existing v4.2 components, fully updating ensures the best performance and usability.

Key Improvements:
- Fix for Device Temperature Gap: Resolved a critical issue with the panel getting warmer on v4.2, potentially affecting its temperature measurements.
- Fix for Crash When Rendering Climate Entities: Resolves a critical issue where the blueprint was crashing when trying to render icons for climate entities with no
hvac_actionattributes, preventing pages from being fully loaded. - Fix for Battery Indicator: Addressed the issue where the battery indicator was not displayed correctly on cover pages. As a bonus, the icon now changes based on the battery level. 😉
- Add Dutch/Italian Date Format: Expanding the existing pre-listed date formats, we've added the Weekday, DD-MM (ex. "Friday, 22-03") format. This enhancement caters to our Dutch and Italian users, adding a touch of local flair to their experience.
A special thanks to the community for their support and contributions, especially to @andythomas for providing useful, informative, and visually appealing temperature trend plots, and to @shing6326 for their dedicated efforts in resolving the crashes with climate entities. Your contributions significantly enhance the quality of our project.
