Handsontable visual update - fixed columns issue

I am looking for a way to provide visual updates when someone changes cell content. I currently have it working by adding in some code to make the cell flash to green to indicate that something has been updated. This works great.

The issue is when you use frozen rows/columns. I guess since there is basically a table on top of the table for frozen columns I’m having a hard time trying to figure out how to select which cell to change the color for.

Here is a jsfiddle illustrating the issue. If you update any cell that is in any column expect the first one it works, but updating the first column does not show the color flash (the first column is “frozen”). https://jsfiddle.net/thenoune/preqzxt4/4/

If there is a way to get the visual row/cell I could select the row on the table positioned on top of the original handsontable for the frozen column and apply the styling that way.

Hi @maria.spalding

the blink effect looks great here, however, I am not sure if we can do it without a class. Handsontable works of layers to provide headers and fixed areas.

I will test it and get back to you on Monday

I am sorry for a late delay. I have tested it but did not find any good example to show the same effect on fixed area.
