Table's action column

I'm looking for a way to use ColumnActions, however instead of rendering action cell on the right side I want it on the left side (table is pretty long).

Is there any API for that, or you plan to add it? I's crucial feature for us.

Hey @beigert ,

No this is currently not possible at the moment, however we are planning "sticky columns" in the near future which should solve your issue and allow the actions column to be "pinned" in place.

Hello @MikeleH,

Is it possible to have the DataTable row hovered, highlighted when the mouse is over the row?
I've tried to use CSS but couldn't reach the row level to set the className.
Do you have any thoughts or workaround?

Hey @chris_cho - the feature you're looking for is natively supported and is called "interactiveRows" (so no css needed 🙂 ). I see that it's missing from the docs, so will make sure that it's added.

<DataTableV2 data={data} columns={columns} interactiveRows />;
