Is there a Unified-RED equivalent to ui-control node?

I'm sending out a lot of data every second just to keep pages looking nice after refreshes.

It would be nice to put in a Report by Exception (RBE) node to only have to display when values change - and when updates are required.

Or, can the node-red-dashboard be installed at the same time and that ui-control be used?

Ken,

ui-control was eliminated in unified-red. We could not find a use case for it. If you have one however, please elaborate and we can perhaps implement it.

You do not need to repeatedly send information to our UI nodes (ur_ prefixed nodes). ur_ nodes cache the last known value for a topic and make a one-time request for the value when the node is rendered on the web page.
