Question: Embed a VTable inside a VTable Cell as hierarchy #2347

khuntia commented 2 months ago

Hi VTable Team

I am evaluating vtable to see if this will work for our usecase. I am impressed with the responsiveness and speed !

I have a further noob question. My usecase is that of highly scalable table but with hierarchy. Ie like a list table or tree-table.

I see this is possible in vtable as we can collapse/expand rows to expose more rows. What I want to understand is when I expand a row, its children which get inserted, i want each child to be another completely independent vtable (Obviously this row will then have a lot bigger dimension of width and height). In effect it opens up another table itself (with its own headers and data). And when collapsed that table gets un-rendered/destroyed.

I was thinking if we merge the cells of the child row and make it one cell and then the content of the cell being another new vtable. Will this work? I am sorry I am not well versed on vtabe, hence the basic question.

Thanks Abhi

https://visactor.io/vtable/demo/table-type/list-table-group Not sure if this effect meets your needs? 20240902162058_rec_

Or do you have a rendering for us to refer to? @khuntia

@fangsmile Looking at something like below except that we can collapse or expand the internal child like in the example you gave. Table inside table in an efficient manner. Presently I am doing this in our usecase using flutter animatedlist but it wont scale, but below is an example of exactly what i am looking for:

We have previously planned the feature of having tables within tables. However, it is still in the scheduling phase and will require some time before it becomes available.

@fangsmile understood, will wait for it :) thanks!
