We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!
We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.
You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.
While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.
We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.
Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!
Hi,
I am writing to see if it is possible for the far left column to be fixed on scroll so that it is visible while user scrolls from left to right.
Thanks!
Hello hiimmike.
Thank You for Your purchase.
Sorry to disappoint you but unfortunately something like this is not possible to achieve with the plugin built in features at the moment or some simple css.
Here is the suggestion from our customer that managed to achieve this
"I actually created a fixed header and column using translation of x and y (no absolute or fixed position used), very similar to the fixed header provided by weihs5 on this site, and here's one solution, take a look:
First of all, you gotta set the z-index for each component below:
Then you gotta add listener on scroll like this:
If your table is set to be scrollable, then you might want to add this in as well:
And here's the scrollBlock() part, it is ugly though, but it works for me though. (noted: the numbers work for my theme, if it is not working correctly on yours, then try to adjust the number until it fits.)
It is kind of messy, you definitely can't copy and paste and expect it to work for you. You need to spend some time to figure it out. Hope this helps everyone!"
So hopefully this can help you out.
Best regards.
Kind Regards,
Aleksandar Vuković
