I am thinking of making a table of things that are scheduled to happen at given times.  
I shall try to use `cron+`, but I'm stuck with making a _nice_ table where there are options when the list is shown.

1 - Delete entry. (Given)  
2 - _Toggle_ state of entry. (On/Off)  
3 - Create new entry.

The entries will have their _Name_, time to action, status and a state register.

So if something is supposed to happen at 14:00 and I click the button at 13:50, at 14:00 it doesn't try to start it again. (yeah, that could be done externally) But the _table_ (list?) will have to accept input to show/indicate if it is `on` or `off`.

Maybe there is exactly what I want out there, but I am not seeing it.  
Even so, there may be something that would/could help. Same: I'm not seeing it.

Thanks in advance.

P.S.  
I guess I could just bash one up out of `text` and `button` nodes. But, I was just asking.

Have you considered these?

- [https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-node-ui-table](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-node-ui-table)
- [https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-node-ui-list](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-node-ui-list)

With the table widget you can achieve very rich scenarios, like this one: [[Announce] remote device table (and collaboration wanted)](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/announce-remote-device-table-and-collaboration-wanted/22505)

For something more simple, you could just use an UI template node with a standard HTML table and some buttons (some knowledge of AngularJS required).

Wow! Thanks

Looked at the announcement link.

That will need a bit (lot) of study.

I hadn't clicked that this is/was a GUI option.

Remember: I'm not the smartest. 😉

More research needed by me.
