Hi i have the following Template:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/3X/a/a/aa277576bb692feb58928060e416262a4cf86829.png)  
it works fine but if i switch to another tab and switch back (all with ui control) the template is empty.  
Any Idea ?  
Thank you  
oh i forgot: if i reload the hole page (Browser F5) the template is visible again.
