- What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?
10.1.5, official Docker
The “eyeball” icon used to inspect cell values is blinking rapidly and cannot be used. Sometimes when clicked it will briefly flash the inspection window and immediately close it.
This behavior is happening in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox so far.
- What did you expect to happen?
The eyeball icon should open the cell inspection window until it is closed.
- Did you receive any errors in the Grafana UI or in related logs? If so, please tell us exactly what they were.
No
Here is a link to a video demonstrating the behavior - please let me know if another format is preferred. Imgur: The magic of the Internet
Good question - our dashboards run on an instance another team owns, so I don’t have control over the version. I’ll test locally Monday and report back.

It’s not every table in our environment - this particular dashboard has some quirk that’s causing it to manifest in its tables. They are working fine elsewhere as far as I can tell. I’ll try to export and import it to v11.

Ok so I upgraded to v11 and imported the same dashboard JSON - the behavior is still happening. If I resize a panel and then resize it back again, the flashing stops and the inspect works as normal.
I’m going to try re-creating these panels in a fresh dashboard. I’m curious if the version control we use in our deployment pipeline is affecting something.

Hello, did you find a solution to this problem?
I’m running into what seems to be the same issue. It only happens in one dashboard. Now, once I resize and the flicker stops, the inspect modal only stays up for a few seconds and then it auto-closes
I ended up remaking the whole thing. Pain in the ass.

I have faced the same flickering behaviour when inspect icon is clicked where it opens the details pop up and closes soon after. I fixed this behaviour by changing the settings for dashboard to have a “Now Delay” of at least 5s especially when the “Refresh live dashboards” is turned on.
I am guessing that when the refresh live dashboard is turned on the dashboard tries to continuously fetch data and the UI rerenders each time when it receives a change in data and hence this flickering behaviour. So keeping a delay in fetching data might have solved the issue.
Good idea! I just turned off the refresh live dashboards thing and rebuilt the panels and it’s working now.
