So, I think this used work, but I cannot figure what I did wrong to make it not work.

if I have the following table:


I copied the above Testing text “ctrl+c”

Then selected the following range:

Then I did “ctrl+v”

afterChange does not get trigger

now it seems the only I can have the following function to be trigger:

afterChange: (changes, source) => HandleMultipleCellEditEuroSheet(
  changes,
  source,
  setUserInfo,
  selectedStartRow,
  selectedStartCol,
  websocket,
  CurrentUserData,
  FetchDataEuroSheet,
  setStatus,
  selectedEndRow,
  sendWebSocketMessage,
  data,
  setSelectedRows,
  hotTableRefEuro,
  getSelectedRows
),

which is related to :

const HandleMultipleCellEditEuroSheet = (changes,
   source,
    setUserInfo,
    selectedStartRow,
     selectedStartCol,
      websocket,
       CurrentUserData,
       FetchDataEuroSheet,
       setStatus,
       selectedEndRow,
       sendWebSocketMessage,
       data,
       setSelectedRows
       ,hotTableRefEuro
       ,getSelectedRows) => {

 
        
        
 


  const FetchAllUserInfoOnly = async () => {
    console.log("  FetchAllUserInfoOnly  ")
      const response = await fetch('/api/user-info');
      if (!response.ok) {
        console.log(" Error API FetchAllUsersInfo  ")
        throw new Error(`Network response was not ok (status ${response.status})`);
      }
      const userInfo = await response.json();
      setUserInfo(userInfo);
  };

      
    const chicagoTime = new Date().toLocaleString('en-US', { timeZone: 'America/Chicago' });
    if ( source === 'updateData') {
    
    }
    if (source === 'edit') {
      console.log('EuroSheet before getSelected Changed selectedEndRow:', selectedEndRow);
      console.log('EuroSheet before getSelected Changed selectedStartRow:', selectedStartRow);
      setSelectedRows(getSelectedRows(hotTableRefEuro))
      UpdateUserTableWithCoordAndStatus(selectedStartCol,selectedStartRow);
    //  checkIfSessionBackendIsActive(); // Call the function

      // checkSessionExpiration();
      console.log(" Session resetActivityTimerKeydown 2");

        // Ensure WebSocket connection is established before sending a message
        console.log('WebSocket state before sending:', websocket.readyState);

        const MessageSocketGroupPleaseUpdate = {
          content: 'PleaseUpdateEuro',
          username: CurrentUserData.username,
          color: CurrentUserData.color,
          coordx: selectedStartRow,
          coordy: selectedStartCol,
          SheetName: "Euro",
          inputFieldOne: null,
        };

        
      sendWebSocketMessage(MessageSocketGroupPleaseUpdate);
      setStatus('Saving...');
 
      const RowsWereChanged = data.slice(selectedStartRow, selectedEndRow);
      // Use the state variable RowsWereChanged containing edited rows
      const changedRows = RowsWereChanged.map(row => ({ ...row, last_modified: chicagoTime }));
      // Print the table before and after changes
      console.log('Table Before Changes:', data);
      console.log('Changed Rows:', changedRows);
  
      console.log('EuroSheet Changed selectedEndRow:', selectedEndRow);
      console.log('EuroSheet Changed selectedStartRow:', selectedStartRow);
      fetch(`/api/EuroSheet/update-multiple`, {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {
          'Content-Type': 'application/json',
        },
        body: JSON.stringify(changedRows),

So again the only way to trigger the above function which my main database backend update is after I do ctrl-v I will have to find empty cell or any cell and click on it then click double “Enter”

I swear I remember that I used do “ctrl+v” and my afterChange gets trigger with the [edit] flag

I might be mistaken but idk
Is there any workaround or recommending. I am okay with going to singular cell and click double “Enter” but the issue with that is myAfterChange -> HandleMultipleCellEditEuroSheet is only going send process the only selected row and when i go to empty singular cell and click enter, it will send that only row:

  const RowsWereChanged = data.slice(selectedStartRow, selectedEndRow);

Please help me :crab:

Hi @noajm

Thank you for contacting us. I checked the case in a basic example and I can see that afterChange hook is triggered correctly on copy/past operation: https://jsfiddle.net/handsoncode/0p48xztu/ Can you please modify this example so your situation can be replicated?

@adrian.szymanski

That is awesome man!

if (source === 'edit' || source == 'CopyPaste.paste') {
  console.log("  HandleMultipleCellEditBluSheet edit :" , source)

Thank you! and this can be close and sorry for the delay.
