Node Red re-loads flows in Chrome tab

bart1511 - I didn't know about the 1880 port to NodeRed - that could be the permanent fix ! (if it works - now testing)

@steerage250 maybe you should read the documentation:
Creating your first flow : Node-RED

the port 1880 solution is a winner - my laptop can even hibernate & restart and it's all still there !

So how were you accessing the NR editor previously? Does HA wrap it up in someway?

yes, it's just one of the many items selectable from the HA menu
