Hello everybody !
I'm working a new node-red project with Zigbee protocol network.
Now that all communications system between node-red and zigbees runs properly, i would want to have possibility to create easily and re-usely an ui\_node and group for each Zigbee node added in the network.
As i can do that with an subflow, how can i do with dashboard ? I understant that i can't create anything dynamicaly.
More precisely :
- when i duplicate my subflow for a new joinned Zigbee node, duplicate also ui\_nodes inside subflow in a duplicate group, and always same position. See that :
A way to do that ?
Tahnk you very much
Sylvain

dashboard nodes in a subflow are not supported. The result is unpredictable.
I am actually working on a solution for dashboard 2.0 but as yet, it is unsupported.

Do you want to show multiple devices at a time, or just one at a time?

@Steve-Mcl ok sorry i don't know why but ui\_node inside my subflow is running well 🤔
I'm runing with node-red 3.1.4
@Colin I want to show all zigbee data in one tab page (the second tab is a config page for each)

I didnt say it wouldnt work 😉 It is just that you cannot sort/re-order items or see them in the sidebar manager. This becomes obvious when there are multiple ui items in the subflow.
