When ApexChart wrapped in Card-Templater, the graph constantly redraws. #37

Hi,

Use case:

I am using an ApexChart card to plot the output of a sensor. The sensor is down sometimes, so I would like to use card-templater to swap the sensor for a backup one. This works fine.

Problem

However, the moment that I wrap an ApexChart in card-templater, even without any templates, the graph begins to redraw every few seconds and the viewport of the browser keeps moving around (the cards even get rearranged). I've reported it to ApexCharts, but I've been sent here

https://github.com/RomRider/apexcharts-card/issues/124

type: 'custom:card-templater'
entities:
  - wu_dejvice_status
  - wu_podbaba_status
card:
  type: 'custom:apexcharts-card'
  series:
    - entity: sensor.wu_dejvice_temperature
      type: area
  graph_span: 24h

The two status trackers get updated once every 15 minutes, so should not be causing a redraw.

Sorry for the delay, but can you please try this in the latest alpha version of the card, 0.1.0-alpha2, to see if that helps? The new version includes refectored template handling.

Yes, it happens in 0.1.0-alpha3 too.
