Hi,

After I upgraded it to the latest version, but I want to try some things on the older version eg 2.14.0. How to return to the older version.
Is there a wiki to guide this? Sorry if this topic is already in the forum.

Thank you.

Yeah - fix already in master - https://github.com/node-red/node-red-dashboard/commits/master
Which of course I spotted 5 mins after publishing it.

Any more wrinkles anyone can see before I push 2.15.4 ?

Sorry if I'm late but
Switch node editor exposes Icon customizing fields if default icon is selected. By filling them with data and closing editor, nothing stored. Nothing really broken also but not correct behavior from the user perspective.

If you change the Icon option to custom and then back to default, the customizing option fields will be hidden, which they should be for initial state I think.

2.15.5: Maintenance Release

Quite a few wrinkles mopped up - thanks to all of you for reporting them, and one extra... We are adding the compression middleware by default to try to speed up loading times... let us know if you think it makes things worse. So far it looks good - but I can't test all use cases...

Enhancements

  • Add compression middleware by default to speed up loading. Thanks @zyrorl

Fixes

  • Fix legend to keep items hidden when new data arrives. Issue #507
  • Re-re-fix switch to not show correct icon despite passthru, and toggle output correctly. Issue #506
  • Make Dialog and Toast be more consistent
  • Fix odd gauge behaviour when in donut mode
  • Fix UI redraw (not redrawing when changing tabs). PR #508
  • Fix vertical slider in only on release mode
  • Let webfont loader be async to not delay page load when offline, and fail silently
  • Fix Datepicker to honour Site date format
  • Tweak passthrough option wording to try to match what actually happens
  • Fix text-input to only send one message when using tab key to move fields

Hi,

I've updated from 2.14 to 2.15.5.
The ui-switch seems to be broken after updating, the true input doesn't work.

check the Pass though msg if payload matches new state: box

15

Thanks! I know that but I can't set it because I get an infinity loop. (The example I uploaded is simplified).
As I said it works with v2.14.

16

Without more information l don’t see how anyone can help

17

I think this was a change made to the way the switch works. To allow an input to switch it as well as allowing manual switching I think you have to set Pass through. You can solve the loop problem by adding an RBE node after the switch

18

I compared ui_switch.js (v2.14-2.15.5)
Only line 86 has been added:

if (!this.forwardInputMessages && this.storeFrontEndInputAsState) { return oldval; }

Sure there are workarounds but it would be great to keep compatibility to v2.14.

19

Is there a comment in the commit for that?

20

I'll have a look later
