Stop changing page title to 'Updating...' when doing a graph update

[jdlongman]

When live-updating a graph (dcc.Graph updated with dcc.Interval), every time an update is made, the title of the page flickers to 'Updating...'.
When calling updates every second this essentially means that the browser tab will keep flickering this message on and off, which is incredibly annoying.
Is there a means to disable this from happening? If not, one is needed.

Any update to this?

I agree. Especially for displaying livedata the flickering of the title makes the whole webapp very noisy. Would be great if one could disable this on demand.

The flickering title is very distracting indeed, makes the updatemode='drag' mode of sliders almost unusable for me.

+1 for feature request!

This PR addresses this issue and allows to disable the change of the title on updating: plotly/dash#1315

This is now complete as of Dash 1.14.0 thanks to @stlehmann 🙂
