Table panel is flickering when pagination is enabled and browser zoom is reduced

Grafana Table Panel
1

My current Grafana version is 12.3.2 (Linux)

I’m using table panels, having the pagination feature enabled. When displaying a dashbaord with such a panel, it depends on the browser zoom level if the panel is displayed normally, or flickering. At a zoom level of 100% I have never seen an issue. The smaller the zoom level, the more likely I’m getting an unreadable panel, since the panel (not the dashboard) then flickers at a very rapid rate. This does NOT happen if pagination is disabled.

I cannot see an error in the Grafana logs. I can reproduce the behaviour with a trivial dashbaord containing only one table panel with the Grafana datasource, all settings left to default but pagination enabeled. The exact zoom value where flickering starts, depends also on the window size of the browser.

I am not 100% sure, but I think that I did not have this issue in versions older than Grafana 12.3.0.

We are experiencing the same issue and it has made grafana unusable. Older versions of grafana did not have this issue. We have a full width table view and as soon as we zoom out the browser to 75% or less the panel starts flicking rapidly

The same issue is reproducible in Grafana 12.3.1 (Linux) when pagination is enabled and browser zoom is below 100%, causing rapid table panel flickering.
As a workaround, manually resizing the table panel height and width according to the browser zoom level (e.g., 100%, 75%, 60%) prevents the flickering and works normally.

This looks like a bug in the new table which was released in 12.2, thanks for reporting and we’ll get this fixed ASAP.
