Hello!
I made a sample with the error:
Basically, if I have I have a cell with a formula and I set an array to mergeCells property in Handsontable initialization, the formula is replaced by its value (Click on the cell A1 to edit, the number 3 is shown, not =1+2).
It seems that it doesn’t happen if mergeCells property is set as a boolean.
I’m setting it wrong or something? I looked at documentation example of how to set it and it seems to be right, but let me know
If this is actually a handsontable problem, is there any forecast about when an update with a fix about will be release? Is there any workaround?
I’ve open a question about it before, but I couldn’t find the reason, anyway here’s the link:
Handsontable version: 9.0.1

Thank you for answer me!
Is there a workaround?
A workaround would be to reapply the formulas after Handsontable is initialized https://jsfiddle.net/ja15bckq/

Just a comment to other developers, populateFromArray is called in a lot of other moments (Ex: paste value, add row, add col, etc), so it is necessary to keep a track of your formulas
Yes, it is also important to mention that the following change has its own source-string that can be used to identify if from the other changes within beforeChange/afterChange operations ref: https://handsontable.com/docs/api/core/#populatefromarray
