Hello,

I am using **Lens Desktop** to manage my Kubernetes clusters.

Previously, under:

> Workloads → Horizontal Pod Autoscalers

there was a **“Metrics”** column that displayed the configured metrics for each HPA (e.g., CPU utilization, memory, custom metrics, etc.).

However, after upgrading to the latest version, the **Metrics column no longer displays any data**. The HPAs themselves are working correctly, and `kubectl describe hpa` shows the metrics as expected. The issue appears to be UI-related.

### Environment

- Lens Desktop Version: **Latest**

- Kubernetes Version: **1.34.4**

- OS: **Windows**

- HPA API Version: autoscaling/v2

### What I Checked

- `kubectl get hpa -o yaml` → metrics are defined correctly

- `kubectl describe hpa` → metrics are visible

- No errors in Lens UI logs

- Issue reproducible across multiple clusters

### Expected Behavior

The **Metrics column** should display configured HPA metrics as in previous versions.

### Actual Behavior

The column is empty for all HPAs.

Has this feature been removed intentionally, or is this a known bug/regression?

Hi, thanks for the detailed bug report – the steps and screenshots are very helpful. You’re right, this is a known UI regression where the HPA Metrics column shows empty values even though the metrics are working correctly under the hood. We’ve tracked this internally and it’s in our backlog. We don’t have a specific timeline yet, but it’s on our radar. Thanks for bringing it up – additional reports help us prioritize.
