Markdown Cells Do Not Render Consistently

bdanielatl — Tue, 14 Jan 2025 13:41:05 GMT

When I am creating a notebook in the UI editor on DataBricks, markdown cells do not always render after I run them. They still appear in 'editing mode'. See the screenshot below, it should have rendered a H1.

Again, this behavior is not consistent. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Refreshing the browser (Microsoft Edge) did render the cell, but I shouldn't have to do this. Please see if this inconsistent behavior can be corrected.

Hi @bdanielatl,

Thank you for reporting the issue with markdown cells not rendering consistently. This appears to be a known issue that has been encountered by other users as well. I will report it internally.

Hi @bdanielatl I had the same issue. Google AI's one suggestion of refreshing the browser helped me resolved the issue. Another suggestion (among other suggestions of Google AI) was to clear the cache of the browser.
