Node-RED 3.0.1 has been released.
This rolls up a small number of fixes from the last few days. Most notably, it restores support for slightly older browsers... so no more disappearing nodes causing unnecessary panics.
Docker images are baking as I type.

I may have found a minor issue with the function node editor on MacOS Monterey12.4 running Chrome Version 103.0.5060.114 (Official Build) (arm64). On the Mac, there's a mouse feature called "Smart Zoom". If this feature is enabled, a double-tap will zoom in and a second double-tap will zoom out. I often use this feature by accident, which is how I found this issue (which I first observed in 3.0.0).
In the node-red editor, a double-tap makes the font smaller. However, subsequent double-taps, rather than reversing the action, continue to shrink the font down to its minimum size. There doesn't appear to be any way to recover within the editor Refreshing the page does reset the font size back to the default, so it's not a serious problem for me, but I thought I'd point it out.
Is this a mouse or pad?
If mouse: try CTRL+Scroll
If touch pad: try pinch and zoom
Lastly, press F1 (or right click -> command pallete) then enter font and chose "font zoom reset"
It's a Magic Mouse. Ahhh, CTRL+Scroll does the trick. Thanks!
Works ok under docker on Pi4 Bullseye
I add node-red-dashboard nodes without problem but i had to remove my email node.
Fail to add node-red-node-email.
Here is the log from NR console.

Hi thank you for very much the new release. I love the junctions.
But the junctions cause an issue when you import flows with a subflow including junctions.
Then the editor looks like this and becomes unusable:
What browser and what version number are you using?
can you supply (export CTRL+E) a subflow that causes this repeatedly please?
In order to make code readable and usable it is necessary to surround your code with three backticks (also known as a left quote or backquote ```)
```
code goes here
```
See this post for more details - How to share code or flow json
Firefox 102.0.1 (64-Bit) or Chromium 103.0.5060.134, both with the same issue. And this issue is only after importing a flow with subflow including junctions.
You can reproduce it with this tiny flow:

But you should backup your own flows before. When you restart your Node-RED Instance the issue with the broken Editor is still there an you can not remove it with the webinterface.
@Ixuser can you raise an issue?
I can see there is an issue with exporting a subflow that includes Junctions.
Ok, i will raise the issue in a few minutes and add an link to it here.
Hi,
yesterday I update to 3.0.1 version and I noticed that this node (image), are no longer aligned ....
I don't know if this is a problem of this release but That's what I saw (it's a little thing of course)
I had a similar issue, I believe it is due to the change allowing more options (path, msg., expression, env var) to set the Filename field (because that field can also rename the node if the Name field is empty). Furthermore, changing names resizes nodes, so it stands to reason that this could cause the issue. Just renaming or moving the offending nodes should resolve the issue though.
Ok, I have looked and looked and cannot find the command line combination to force an install to version 3.0.1. on my Linux Mint machine.
sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm node-red
or
sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm node-red@3.0.1
does not yield 3.0.1. instead it is still 3.0.0-beta.4
The upgrade to 3.0.1 worked fine in Windows just leaving off the version statement, What am I doing wrong?
Have you restarted node-red since you did that? Also clear the cache in the browser (using the browser menus) and refresh the page. If still not working then stop node-red and start it again in a terminal and post the terminal output here. Assuming that you used the recommended Ubuntu/Debian/Pi install script then you can do that using
node-red-stop
node-red-start
Oh yes, re-booted the machine. It runs from the terminal normally on this home Linux laptop. I'm not doing anything like installing it local or using a service. I tried to be specific to load the version using @ as listed in my post. The information about the version is in the terminal. This has nothing to do with the editor browser.
Also, my system does not recognize node-red-stop or node-red-start
In that case, presumably, you did not use the recommended install script I linked to.
Please post the full terminal output you get when you start node-red (copy/paste please, not screenshot).
Also what does the command which node-red show?
[Edit] also, how are you starting node-red?
[edit]only seems to apply to subflow node
I've just encountered a little issue - I can't seem able to copy/paste a node (I can copy but not paste)
I've been experimenting using Edge on my Windows machine to edit my instance running on my Pi 4 and did control-c to copy a node - message pops up saying node copied
But when I did ctrl-v - nothing happens. Also nothing happens if I use menus to paste either...
As I'm typing this tried different browser - same thing and then I tried copying a different node and that worked!
Seems this is only happening on a subflow node
Can anyone else replicate this!
[edit2] only seems to happen with one type of subflow node!
[edit3- here is error in console when I try to paste
Does your subflow include Junctions? There is an issue exporting subflows with junctions reported in post 8 above, so perhaps it is a related issue.
No - the subflow hasn't been touched in a long time - its just a debugging node I use to use status to display last time a message was received by it
Here is the subflow itself (includes simpletime contrib node)
