Wondering how to change the title of a group in Dashbaord2. Specifically, the time of an event of the group should be updated for the title. How can this be done? For clarity, here is the point where the change should be made. [dashb2rename] [dashb2rename2]

[image] gNeandr: Wondering how to change the title of a group Group names are edited in the group properties... [chrome_wO0aKCV564]

Sorry, my question was not detailed enough! The change should be done with a function node not on the Editor page let at = msg.time; msg.ui_control = { "group": { "id": "351979b5d8f67a0e", // Ersetze mit der tatsächlichen ID "name": `Wärme (${at})` } };

That is not currently supported Docs: Control ui-control | Node-RED Dashboard 2.0 You could remove the group name and use a text field. [image] Or you could get fancy with some CSS or teleports.

Thanks for the pointer. Indeed, it works (even if the solution seems a bit bizarre)
