Refreshing issue while returning from another tabs #237

Hi John, Good Work!! This is a nice board with good options.

But, I have some loading issue with drawing board, when i open other tabs in the browser and returning to the board. The board is completely becoming empty when i return from another tabs to board. Can you please let me know how to fix this issue. If i try to reload the URL then only the complete board is displaying as it is before.

I assume some disconnect logic needs adding. See if a socket disconnect event is fired and/or reconnect and add some logic to reload the board on reconnect.

Hey @shilpabuddha4, what browser are you using? If using chrome, are you still having the issue (if you have upgraded to the latest version)

I've had the same issue, for some time, as well. I just reload--not ideal, however.

Yeah, it's been an issue for quite a long time. Hopefully, I'll get a little bit of time to look at this.
