QTable with multiple selection and QPopupEdit

[eoinom]

Ah yes that’s what I needed, thanks for that.

@eoinom @metalsadman I had the same situation and I got the checkboxes to show up however all the checkboxes are prechecked (with the dash icon) and I can’t uncheck them. I already had another variable called “selected” so for the purpose of the example, I renamed “selected” to “rowSelected” so my getSelectedString changed to:

private getSelectedString() {
    return this.rowSelected.length === 0
      ? ''
      : `${this.rowSelected.length} record${
          this.rowSelected.length > 1 ? 's' : ''
        } rowSelected of ${this.data.length}`;
  }

any thoughts ?

For my column, I had put the checkbox as such:

<q-td auto-width>
                    <q-checkbox dense v-model="props.rowSelected" />
                  </q-td>

@Mak-NOAA your rowSelected property must be initiated first on your data array. ie. ... data:[ { ..., // your other fields rowSelected: false } ]. I suggest not using selected tho, since it’s being used internally by QTable.

@metalsadman I tried to add
trip.rowSelected = false
below the following line (where I retrieve the data):
https://github.com/nwfsc-fram/boatnet/blob/master/apps/obs-web/src/views/DebrieferTrips.vue#L402

however the boxes are still checked. I’m sure there’s an obvious bug there, can you please have a look?

I was using “selected” to figure out which column cells were selected as I have a dialog box that needs to allow the user to edit the cells selected.

@Mak-NOAA
just change your checkbox.

<q-td auto-width>
   <q-checkbox dense v-model="props.selected" />
</q-td>

selected is exposed by your slot’s props in your case the body https://quasar.dev/vue-components/table#QTable-API you can check the full properties there.
when a row is selected, then it will be stored in your rowSelected array and be sure that what you passed in your QTables prop row-key="id" is a prop in your row (does id exist in your row and is it unique?).

@metalsadman I changed the checkbox to <q-checkbox dense v-model=“props.selected” /> but what happened was that all rows get selected now if I select any checkbox.

Are you saying for my own array for column cell selection, I should not use “selected” as it’s reserved by the framework?

[metalsadman]

@Mak-NOAA i think the issue here is the row-key, try giving it the __index ie row-key="__index".

[Mak-NOAA]

@metalsadman yes that fixed it, thank you!

Sorry I’m new to Quasar but can you explain more about what just happened?

https://quasar.dev/vue-components/table#Selection

its a good idea to read the doc page of the component you are trying to use, so you can learn what he can do and how you should do it.

By the way __index is not so good because it is private (everything starting with __ is private), its better if your data has an unique value such as id

[Mak-NOAA]

Thanks @lucasfernog looks like row-key=“key” was needed as that was my unique identifier
