Using loadData on an object data doesn't work

[AMBudnik]

Description

When we want to use loadData using an object data source table shows only row headers.

Tip

It doesn't work only if we call the method for the first time http://jsfiddle.net/handsoncode/k6xj3uh2/

Demo

Your environment

• Handsontable version: 0.31.2 / 1.10.2
• Browser Name and version: Chrome 57
• Operating System: Windows 10

Interestingly, if called multiple times, like this:

setTimeout(function() {
    hot3.loadData(objectData);
    hot3.loadData(objectData);
    hot3.loadData(objectData);
  }, 2000) 

it works. We have the same issue currently.

That is correct @Nobol it only fails for the first time that we call it.
It looks like some calculations aren't finished in the time that we want to update the data.

I am using this as a workaround for now (calling loadData two times). I hope that also works for you!

[AMBudnik]

yes it does @Nobol Still it is something to fix :)

Have there been any update to this issue?

I am using the most recent release (version 0.34.5) and I am currently having a similar problem where, when loading data into the table from an object, the correct number of rows are being created, but only the first row is populated with data.

Calling loadData twice (as mentioned above by @Nobol) does not work, but my current work around is to load the data from the object, clear the data from the table (using loadData([])) and then load the data from the object again.

Hi @ericjames94

If you add the columns settings the object data is visible http://jsfiddle.net/handsoncode/bt3mxv4r/

Still replicable in v0.35.1. Updated demo http://jsfiddle.net/czr7nyL5/

works the same in v 5.0.1 http://jsfiddle.net/sa2ve4p8/

The issue is still present in the 7.1.0 http://jsfiddle.net/n3ouz5kp/

Looks promising in v8.0.0-rc1: https://jsfiddle.net/4sbft6v3/
