@beets thanks beets it works at last

OK, thanks for this, good to know the right track to go on!

Vuetify currently has this. I’m surprised Quasar doesn’t support it. I had it working on vuetify with an external API hitting the DB and refreshing the table contents. In vuetify, the sort object contains and array of objects consisting of column names and asc or desc. Worked really well.

Linking an answer so this question isn’t orphaned: https://forum.quasar-framework.org/topic/3626/qtable-select-row-when-clicking-row

That’s what I tryed as well. But it has no effect. I go ahead! Will let you know, if I figured it out.

All these will be possible in QDataTable revamp of future v0.15 (currently in the works).

Sad. Currently @kenium 's trick doesn’t work for me. It fails on error: “TypeError: Cannot read property ‘t’ of undefined”.

Here is the complete code of component:
<template>
<q-table
:title = “$t(‘default.register’)”
:data = “tableData”
:columns = “columns”
row-key = “startingNumber”
/>
</template>

<script>
export default {
data: () => ({
columns: [{
name: ‘startingNumber’,
field: ‘startingNumber’,
label: this.$i18n.t(‘startingNumber’),
}],
tableData: [{
startingNumber: 1,

}),
};
</script>

<style>
</style>
