We’re currently on a fairly old version of handsontable, version 8.4.0 to be exact, we’re working on upgrading, However I believe this issue, is still an issue on newer versions.
The issue also persists even if only only of the instance has a custom editor.
This is becoming a blocking issue for us now in multiple uses cases. I was wondering if any work around or plan it in place to fix this in the near future.
Thank you for contacting us. This is complicated issue. As one of our users describe in the GH report you linked the problem lies deep within our React wrapper, and there not known workarounds for this.
Currently we are focusing on other topics and this issue isn’t currently on our roadmap, but I will notify our PM that this is something that we should consider.
It is becoming increasingly common for us to have multiple editable tables with custom components on a single page, any updates or work arounds would be greatly appreciated.
No worries. We actually managed to resolve our use case by just using editor and renderer on the column, seems to work well. Got 10+ tables with custom editors and all good. This is instead of using hot-editor.
