Unable to drag/reposition nodes in Brave (Chromium)

[papakpmartin]

Current Behavior

In Node-RED v3.1.3 using node-red-dashboard 3.6.2, it’s apparently not possible to drag/reposition nodes around using the latest Brave Browser (on Mac; v1.61.114 Chromium: 210.0.6099.199). Brave's "shields" are down. I tried clearing cache. No interesting errors in console when trying to select/drag.

Doing the same thing from the same server using Safari works as expected.

Expected Behavior

Dragging nodes should work as seen in the Safari video

Steps To Reproduce

As this is specifically about the layout editor included with Node-RED dashboard, I'll move this issue over to that project.

My fault @knolleary - when explained in Slack I read this as not being able to drag the nodes in the Node-RED Editor, so asked to raise here.

Yeah - the gridstack library we use was evolved really quickly after we adopted it, and they have broken their API multiple times since. (now v10.0 vs our v0.6). Last time I tried to update it, it broke a whole bunch of other stuff, and needed other support, so I have just pinned it back. The reality is that I am unlikely to ever fix this as we are slowly moving over to Dashboard2, but if anyone wants to have a go please jump in and do so, as it would be much appreciated.

Is Dashboard2 available for use?

[joepavitt]

It most certainly is: https://dashboard.flowfuse.com/

Not 100% feature parity yet, but most of it (plus some new stuff) is in there

Awesome! I really like that you're using Vue3... good stuff.

FWIW, I'm cool with closing this. :)
