Hmm I missed that.  
I checked, but I checked while it still had add newline ticked.

Probably best if I had never mentioned this!

Can you work with my advice on the subject of subflow?

I suspect there will need to be core changes to original Dashboard to support this, as we've had to do with Dashboard 2.0 too

Using dashboard 1 nodes in a subflow has never been supported.

The work done in NR4 should just work for both dashboards; allowing the choice of config node (IE ui\_group etc) to be customised per subflow.

@boehan I'll take a proper look at your issue this week.

The work done in dashboard 2 was to provide visibility of nodes in a subflow mostly. What Nick says is correct in that we added support for config node selection in a subflow universally. In essence, this is also possible with dashboard 1 just the UX is not there for sorting or visibility.

Thanks for all your replies. I'm excited to see if Nick can find a way to make it work for Dashboard 1 as well.

I hadn't mentioned it yet, thank you very much for the implementation of the new subflow function in NR4, that will help a lot to program reusable subflows with various functions.
