insert new row (using the button) and select it and scroll to it

Hordovenko

Hello.
I'm using Editor. I need insert new row (using the button) and select it and scroll to it.
Insert new row and scroll to it I do without problem but I can't select row automatically.

I would be grateful for help

Not sure exactly how you are finding the row you want. This example of the row().show() plugin may help:

If not then please post some code or better a link to an example of what you are doing.

Hi @kthorngren
Thank for your help.

I planned to do it as follows:
1.Insert new row
buttons: [
{ extend: 'create', editor: editor },...

2.Get new row ID and select it
I don't know how do it

3.Scroll to new row
{table.row('.selected').scrollTo()}

Please tell me if this is possible

Yes, it is possible. I put together a simple example to get you started:
http://live.datatables.net/tedabuvo/1/edit

It uses rows().indexes() and filter() to find the index of the row containing specific text. The select extension is used to select the row and the scroller extension is used to scroll to the row.

hi @kthorngren.
Thank for your help.
Please tell me if is possible get new row ID without filter() (and passing row values because I have a lot of them)?
Just insert the new row and get its ID.

Looks like the postCreate has the row ID if you are using Editor 1.8 or above.
