I have being using ui\_control to message to set up ui\_table for some time now. But after some updates to new versions of node-red related packages it has stopped working. No error messages in the nod-red log or the browser console, just a blank panel where the table should be. I have set up a clean environment and installed the ui\_control example flow and it shows exactly the same behaviour.  
Can anyone reproduce this, or anyone any ideas?

Node red version is 1.3.4

Can you provide the flow that shows the issue? That will save time for someone trying to reproduce it.

Do you test the '3 ui\_control table' example and get this?

if I press on the inject button I get this:

That is expected as the table config is send by a ui\_control message.

Oh dear. I forgot that you had to press the inject. to make it work.

I have disabled the live sensor input in my development site.

Senility strikes again.
