Current behavior 😯

I have a DataGrid whose data content (rows) is regularly updated (with a timer) via a prop of its parent component.

When new data (rows in the DataGrid componenent) comes in, will first re-render with empty content (including row ids), then with the updated content, then with empty content again, then with the updated content again.

So it appears as if the grid content flickers twice before persistently showing.

Expected behavior 🤔

Expected behavior is that nothing flickers.

Looks like problem is solved 👌. I was using version 5.17.12. Upgrading to version 5.17.21 helped fixing it. There must have been some commit about this bug sometime between 5.17.12 and 5.17.21

There was no mention of flickering in the issue reporting history, that's why I thought it was still an issue today.

Hi Harvey,
Indeed, this was fixed in #7155 and released in https://github.com/mui/mui-x/releases/tag/v5.17.16
I'm glad the upgrade helped!
