I like the sticky header feature, but how can we make the tools that appear above the header row sticky as well? Its great that you can still see the header row when scrolling down, but if you want to edit or delete a row you then have to scroll all the way back up.
to see if someone may be already suggested this feature. If you can't see it, feel free to add your suggestion there, and as more people vote, the feature will move higher on the priority list.
You can certainly follow our changeLog page if you'd like ( it is also available in the plugin dashboard), where we state any changes/new features/bug fixes during updates;
and our newsletter, so you're informed about new features, bug fixes, freebies, etc.
For the time being, I can suggest alternate workarounds to make editing or deleting rows easier for the use-case, as you said, when someone scrolls down to select a row for editing.
- For easier editing of rows, you can try our PopOver Editor option.
This feature enables you to show the editable table control block as a popover above any row.

Hi methos,
Sorry to disappoint you, but there is no way currently to make the tools above the Table sticky along with the Header row.
For that, you can make a future development suggestion.

Please check more on how this works here.
- You can also check out our Inline Editing Feature on this Page.
For example, for some user scenarios where you need to edit only one field, inline editing is intuitive and easy.
In short, this is used to allow a user to simply double click into any cell to edit it.
Let me know if that helps.
Kind Regards,
