Open question:
Usage of isEqual here may be inefficient and better replaced with a custom diff.
It looks like the items that need to be comapred are:
pinFilters, updateFIltersOnChange, useTimeFilter, and the values inside the controls array, which have many keys that could have changed.
Due to the complexity of the diff required, I figure that isEqual might be the right choice.
| this.timeFilterSubscription = deps.data.query.timefilter.timefilter | ||
| .getTimeUpdate$() | ||
| .subscribe(() => { | ||
| if (this.visParams?.useTimeFilter) { | ||
| this.isLoaded = false; | ||
| } | ||
| }); |

I'm not sure do you really need the subscription?
I didn't find the case where do you need to handle this specific parameter.
Could you please clarify this approach? Thnx

This subscription is used to re-initialize the input controls when the 'useTimeFilter' setting is on, and the time filter has changed. This is an expected behaviour of input controls, and was missing after I stopped the 're-initialize everything on each render' behavior.

This PR fixes #76142.
Overview
The problem seems to stem from render() getting called on resize in
src/plugins/visualizations/public/components/visualization_chart.tsx, whereas the input controls visualization seems to assume that render() should fully reset all the controls, and should only be called on startup. src/plugins/input_control_vis/public/vis_controller.tsxIn my research it seems like this problem has been around since 7.7.
The fix is to use a flag to ensure that the initialization only happens once, and subsequent re-renders don't fully re-initialize.
