Saving DataTable configuration

I have a table with many columns that can be configured with few or many columns (chosen from a list) and each column can be reordered. I have successfully saved the column configuration so that the user can be presented with the same configuration each time they log in. However, the columns are also resizable and I do not see a way to retrieve each column size to store along with the column order. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Skullsplitter

Hi,
I think you can use custom save state options. Please see;
https://www.primefaces.org/primereact/s ... able/state
You can save the changes to database on componentWillUnmount and then on componentDidMount, you can load the changes from database. Please review the above link.
Best Regards,

DataTables has the option of being able to save the state of a table (its paging position, ordering state etc) so that is can be restored when the user reloads a page, or comes back to the page after visiting a sub-page. This state saving ability is enabled by the stateSave option.

??? The current situation is that an extra feature has been added to solve the main issue only. Users can intervene in the state as they wish.

You can save the DataTable as an XML string to an ordinary String setting, like this: StringWriter writer = new StringWriter(); table.
