The top of the white arc is VFE or the speed at which full flaps can be deployed. There should be a placard that gives you the speeds for the other notches. You can actually see the speeds on the flap control. It shows that first notch can go in at 140 knots and the 2nd and 3rd at 95 knots.

The Carenado 182T has a serious cockpit view issue where if you raise up to be able to see out the front, you cannot turn your head left/right and see out the side windows. Does this aircraft also have that issue? I use TrackIR for head movement recognition and like when you're in the actual aircraft it is essential that you can simply turn your head left/right without having to droop way down to be able to see out the side windows (traffic, pattern, etc.). Using "buttons" to change views is a thing of the past for me. In real life, there's no issue looking right and left. So I was really surprised with this issue in the modeled 182T.

Hopefully they issue a fix. Updates seem to mess with at least one add-on aircraft every time. You can try to turn the avionics off and back on. Sometimes that does work, but not always (in MSFS).
