hello,
I found a weird behaviour with the ui_dropdown when using it with numbers as options.
Basically when the options are dynamically defined in the flow, each value can only be selected once( weird, right ?). Example: say you have a dropdown with 4 options: 1, 2, 3, 4 . If you select 1, the dropdown payload will be set to 1 as expected. The same happens if afterwards one selects 2. However, if after one attempts to select 1 again the payload will be always empty for whatever option you've selected before. The workaround I found was to send the options again to the dropdown but I think we should not have to.
When using a dropdown with options statically defined, everything works normally. Therefore, you can freely jump between options and have the payload always updated accordingly.
I'm using v2.23.4 of node-red-dashboard.
Find below a flow to quickly see the described behaviour:
thanks for your help, cheers
