Embedded Editor Now Shows Active Tab

Back to the Changelog

Now the browser tab title updates as you navigate the embedded editor. If you're working on a tab called "Sensor Flow", your browser will show Node-RED: Sensor Flow - FlowFuse. This works for both hosted and remote device instances, and also updates when you navigate into a subflow.

If you work with multiple editors open at once, you can now tell exactly what's open in each tab without clicking through.

Previously, the title stayed generic, something like Instance - Editor - FlowFuse, regardless of which canvas tab was active. If you had multiple embedded editors open in different browser tabs, there was no way to tell them apart at a glance.

This feature requires Node-RED Assistant v0.12.0 or later. If you are on an older version of the assistant, the title will not update.

This change is live on FlowFuse Cloud. Self-Hosted users will receive it in the next release (v2.29).
