Description

This PR adds support for variable height rows in the Table Widget when using infinite scroll. The implementation dynamically adjusts row heights based on content, particularly for wrapped text and HTML content.\

Key Features

  1. Dynamic Row Height Calculation: Rows automatically resize based on content length when cell wrapping is enabled or HTML content is present
  2. Smooth Infinite Scrolling: Maintains smooth scrolling performance while supporting variable height rows
  3. Responsive Layout: Rows adjust in real-time when table data changes or when cell wrapping is toggled

Implementation Details

The implementation replaces the fixed-size virtual list with a variable-size virtual list that can handle rows of different heights:

  1. Created a new BaseVirtualList component that uses VariableSizeList from react-window
  2. Added row height measurement logic in the Row component to calculate optimal heights
  3. Implemented a context-based system to store and update row heights
  4. Created a utility hook useColumnVariableHeight to track columns that need variable height handling

Testing

Added comprehensive Cypress tests that verify:

  1. Fixed height behavior when cell wrapping is disabled
  2. Increased row heights when cell wrapping is enabled
  3. Dynamic height updates when content changes
  4. Proper handling of HTML content that have extended heights
  5. Reverting to fixed height when wrapping is disabled

Fixes #39089, #39091

48-125: Refinement on error handling & optional chaining
The measuring logic is well-structured but silently catches all errors, which can obscure unexpected issues. Consider logging or handling them more specifically.
Meanwhile, applying an optional chain at line 124 aligns with safer property access:

- rowNeedsMeasurement.current && (rowNeedsMeasurement.current[index] = false);
+ rowNeedsMeasurement.current?.[index] = false;

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBody/BaseVirtualList.tsx (2)

78-90: Consider updating useCallback dependency array

The useCallback hook dependency array includes rowHeights.current which is a mutable ref value and won't trigger proper dependency updates.

-  [rowHeights.current, tableSizes.ROW_HEIGHT],
+  [tableSizes.ROW_HEIGHT], // rowHeights is a ref, so we don't need it in the deps array

80-87: Add error logging for better debugging

Your error handling silently falls back to default row height when an error occurs. Consider adding error logging to make debugging easier.

  try {
    // Add a minimum height threshold to prevent rows from being too small
    const rowHeight = rowHeights.current?.[index] || tableSizes.ROW_HEIGHT;

    return Math.max(rowHeight, tableSizes.ROW_HEIGHT);
  } catch (error) {
+   console.error("Error calculating row height:", error);
    return tableSizes.ROW_HEIGHT;
  }
app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBody/useColumnVariableHeight.tsx (3)

55-75: Improve comparison for nested objects

The current implementation of hasRowDataChanged performs shallow comparison, which won't detect changes in nested objects.

function hasRowDataChanged(
  currentData: Record<string, unknown>,
  previousData: Record<string, unknown> | null,
): boolean {
  if (!previousData) return true;

  // Check if the keys are different
  const currentKeys = Object.keys(currentData);
  const previousKeys = Object.keys(previousData);

  if (currentKeys.length !== previousKeys.length) return true;

  // Check if any values have changed for the variable height columns
  for (const key of currentKeys) {
-   if (currentData[key] !== previousData[key]) {
+   if (JSON.stringify(currentData[key]) !== JSON.stringify(previousData[key])) {
      return true;
    }
  }

  return false;
}

6-52: Add null/undefined check for columns

The hook doesn't handle the case where columns might be null or undefined, which could cause runtime errors.

function useColumnVariableHeight(
  columns: ReactTableColumnProps[],
  row: ReactTableRowType<Record<string, unknown>>,
) {
  const variableHeightColumnsRef = useRef<number[]>([]);
  const previousRowDataRef = useRef<Record<string, unknown> | null>(null);

+  // Return empty array if columns are not defined
+  if (!columns || !Array.isArray(columns)) {
+    return [];
+  }

  // Identify columns that need variable height handling (wrapping or HTML)
  const columnsNeedingVariableHeight = columns
    .map((col, index) => {
      // Check for columns with wrapping enabled
      if (col.columnProperties?.allowCellWrapping) {
        return index;
      }

      // Check for with HTML type
      if (col.columnProperties?.columnType === ColumnTypes.HTML) {
        return index;
      }

      return -1;
    })
    .filter((index) => index !== -1);

6-52: Optimize row data change detection for large datasets

The hook checks all keys in row data rather than just those for variable height columns, which could be inefficient for large datasets.

Consider optimizing to only check relevant columns:

  // Check if row data has changed
  const currentRowData = row?.original || {};
+ 
+ // Only check columns that need variable height
+ const relevantKeys = Object.keys(currentRowData).filter((key, idx) => 
+   columnsNeedingVariableHeight.includes(idx));
+ 
+ const relevantCurrentData = relevantKeys.reduce((obj, key) => {
+   obj[key] = currentRowData[key];
+   return obj;
+ }, {} as Record<string, unknown>);
+ 
+ const relevantPreviousData = previousRowDataRef.current ? relevantKeys.reduce((obj, key) => {
+   obj[key] = previousRowDataRef.current?.[key];
+   return obj;
+ }, {} as Record<string, unknown>) : null;

  const rowDataChanged = hasRowDataChanged(
-   currentRowData,
-   previousRowDataRef.current,
+   relevantCurrentData,
+   relevantPreviousData,
  );
app/client/cypress/e2e/Regression/ClientSide/Widgets/TableV2/InfiniteScrollVariableHeightRows_spec.ts (2)

72-116: Avoid nested async operations with better structure

The test uses nested async operations which can lead to flaky tests. Consider restructuring to avoid unnecessary nesting.

- let currentRowHeight = 0;
- cy.get(".t--widget-tablewidgetv2 .tbody .tr").each(($row) => {
-   cy.wrap($row)
-     .invoke("outerHeight")
-     .then((height) => {
-       currentRowHeight = Math.ceil(height!);
-     });
- });

+ // Get the height of the first row before update
+ cy.get(".t--widget-tablewidgetv2 .tbody .tr")
+   .first()
+   .invoke("outerHeight")
+   .then((height) => {
+     const currentRowHeight = Math.ceil(height!);
      
+     // Update the table data
+     propPane.EnterJSContext("Table data", JSON.stringify(updatedTestData));
      
+     // Verify height change
+     cy.get(".t--widget-tablewidgetv2 .tbody .tr")
+       .invoke("outerHeight")
+       .should("be.greaterThan", currentRowHeight);
+   });

103-115: Replace manual max height calculation with Cypress commands

The manual calculation of max height can be replaced with Cypress commands for better readability and reliability.

- let maxHeight = 0;
- cy.get(".t--widget-tablewidgetv2 .tbody .tr")
-   .each(($row, index) => {
-     cy.wrap($row)
-       .invoke("outerHeight")
-       .then((height) => {
-         if (height! > maxHeight) {
-           maxHeight = height!;
-         }
-       });
-   })
-   .then(() => {
-     expect(maxHeight).to.be.greaterThan(currentRowHeight);
-   });

+ // Use Cypress to directly find the tallest row
+ cy.get(".t--widget-tablewidgetv2 .tbody .tr")
+   .then(($rows) => {
+     let maxHeight = 0;
+     $rows.each((_, row) => {
+       const height = Cypress.$(row).outerHeight();
+       maxHeight = Math.max(maxHeight, height || 0);
+     });
+     expect(maxHeight).to.be.greaterThan(currentRowHeight);
+   });
app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBody/Row.tsx (4)

53-56: Consider memoizing dependency to prevent unnecessary renders.

The current implementation will trigger re-renders whenever wrappingColumns changes. Consider memoizing this value or implementing shouldComponentUpdate logic to prevent unnecessary re-renders.


57-87: Extract cell type identification logic into a separate function.

The logic for identifying cells with wrapping and HTML content could be extracted into a separate function to improve readability and maintainability.

- if (row?.cells && Array.isArray(row.cells)) {
-   row.cells.forEach((cell, index: number) => {
-     const typedCell = cell as unknown as CellWithColumnProps;
- 
-     if (typedCell?.column?.columnProperties?.allowCellWrapping) {
-       cellIndexesWithAllowCellWrapping.push(index);
-     }
- 
-     if (
-       typedCell?.column?.columnProperties?.columnType === ColumnTypes.HTML
-     ) {
-       cellIndexesWithHTMLCell.push(index);
-     }
-   });
- }
+ if (row?.cells && Array.isArray(row.cells)) {
+   const identifyCellTypes = (cell: any, index: number) => {
+     const typedCell = cell as unknown as CellWithColumnProps;
+     
+     if (typedCell?.column?.columnProperties?.allowCellWrapping) {
+       cellIndexesWithAllowCellWrapping.push(index);
+     }
+     
+     if (typedCell?.column?.columnProperties?.columnType === ColumnTypes.HTML) {
+       cellIndexesWithHTMLCell.push(index);
+     }
+   };
+   
+   row.cells.forEach(identifyCellTypes);
+ }

88-132: Extract height calculation logic into separate functions.

The height calculation logic is complex and would benefit from being extracted into separate functions for better readability and maintainability.

70-70: Added new props for dynamic row height support

The new props listRef, rowHeights, and rowNeedsMeasurement provide the necessary infrastructure for variable row height functionality in the TableBody component. These props will allow the table to measure and track row heights dynamically based on content.

Also applies to: 77-78

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBody/BodyContext.tsx (1)

1-52: Well-structured context implementation for variable height management

This new context properly encapsulates the state needed for variable height rows. The use of RefObject types for tracking row heights and measurement flags is appropriate, and importing VariableSizeList from react-window shows the intention to support dynamic row sizing.

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/StaticTable.tsx (1)

87-87: Consistent implementation of row height props in StaticTable

The addition of listRef, rowHeights, and rowNeedsMeasurement props maintains consistency with the VirtualTable implementation, ensuring that both table types support the variable height functionality.

Also applies to: 93-94

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBody/InifiniteScrollBody/index.tsx (2)

8-8: Replaced fixed height list with variable height implementation

Swapping FixedInfiniteVirtualList for VariableHeightInfiniteVirtualList is the key change enabling dynamic row heights. This modification aligns perfectly with the PR objective of supporting variable height rows in the Table Widget.

Also applies to: 49-49


49-59:

Details

✅ Verification successful

Verify prop compatibility with the new component

The props being passed to VariableHeightInfiniteVirtualList appear unchanged from those previously passed to FixedInfiniteVirtualList. Ensure that the new component handles these props correctly, especially considering its enhanced capability to manage variable heights.


🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Check the implementation of VariableHeightInfiniteVirtualList to verify prop compatibility
echo "Checking VirtualList implementation to verify prop types and handling..."
cat app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBody/VirtualList.tsx

Length of output: 886


Prop Compatibility Verified
The implementation of VariableHeightInfiniteVirtualList shows that it forwards all props—including onItemsRendered and infiniteLoaderListRef—to BaseVirtualList without alteration. This confirms compatibility with the props previously passed to FixedInfiniteVirtualList.

  • The new component is a simple wrapper around BaseVirtualList, ensuring that any variable height handling is seamlessly integrated.
  • No additional alterations are required based on the verification.
app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBody/BaseVirtualList.tsx (1)

47-113: Implementation looks good

The BaseVirtualList component is well-structured with proper ref handling and memoization for performance optimization. The approach for calculating variable row heights is solid.

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBody/VirtualList.tsx (2)

7-11: Component renaming reflects functionality change

Good job renaming FixedInfiniteVirtualList to VariableHeightInfiniteVirtualList to better reflect its purpose with the new variable height functionality.


13-21: Clean separation of fixed vs variable list components

The separation of concerns between FixedVirtualList and VariableHeightInfiniteVirtualList is well implemented, making the code more maintainable.

app/client/cypress/e2e/Regression/ClientSide/Widgets/TableV2/InfiniteScrollVariableHeightRows_spec.ts (2)

10-44: Tests setup looks good

The test setup using the feature flag intercept and appropriate test data with varying text lengths is well structured.


46-161: Comprehensive test cases

The tests cover all the key scenarios for variable height rows: fixed height baseline, dynamic height with wrapping, height updates on content change, reversion to fixed height, and HTML content handling.

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBody/Row.tsx (5)

2-14: Clean import organization for new functionality.

The imports have been properly organized to support the new dynamic height measurement functionality. Good addition of the necessary hooks and constants.


23-30: Well-defined interface for column properties.

The CellWithColumnProps interface clearly defines the structure needed for handling cell wrapping and column types, which is essential for the dynamic height calculations.


33-52: Good setup of references and state for dynamic measurements.

The component now properly uses refs and state to track row elements and handle dynamic updates based on wrapping columns.


171-171: Good addition of the ref attribute to the row element.

The ref attribute is properly added to the row element, which is essential for the height measurement logic.


69-71:

Details

❓ Verification inconclusive

Review the hardcoded index in cellIndexesWithHTMLCell array.

The array is initialized with [0] which assumes the first cell is always an HTML cell. Is this intentional? If not, consider initializing as an empty array.


🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Check if the first cell is always HTML in the table
ast-grep --pattern 'cellIndexesWithHTMLCell: number[] = [0]'

Length of output: 62


Action Required: Confirm the Intent Behind the Hardcoded Index

It’s not entirely clear from the code whether hardcoding [0] for cellIndexesWithHTMLCell is intentional. Please verify if the first cell should always be an HTML cell; if so, consider adding a clarifying comment to document this design decision. Otherwise, initialize the array as empty to avoid accidental assumptions.

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/VirtualTable/BaseVirtualList.tsx (1)

60-77: Consider simplifying ref handling logic

The combined ref handling is complex but necessary. However, it could be improved by abstracting the ref assignment logic into a separate utility function to make the code more maintainable.

- const combinedRef = (list: VariableSizeList | null) => {
-   // Handle infiniteLoaderListRef
-   if (infiniteLoaderListRef) {
-     if (typeof infiniteLoaderListRef === "function") {
-       infiniteLoaderListRef(list);
-     } else {
-       (
-         infiniteLoaderListRef as React.MutableRefObject<VariableSizeList | null>
-       ).current = list;
-     }
-   }
-
-   // Handle listRef - only if it's a mutable ref
-   if (listRef && "current" in listRef) {
-     (listRef as React.MutableRefObject<VariableSizeList | null>).current =
-       list;
-   }
- };
+ const combinedRef = (list: VariableSizeList | null) => {
+   // Utility function to update a ref
+   const updateRef = (ref: React.Ref<VariableSizeList> | null | undefined) => {
+     if (!ref) return;
+     if (typeof ref === "function") {
+       ref(list);
+     } else if ("current" in ref) {
+       (ref as React.MutableRefObject<VariableSizeList | null>).current = list;
+     }
+   };
+   
+   updateRef(infiniteLoaderListRef);
+   updateRef(listRef);
+ };
app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/VirtualTable/useRowHeightMeasurement.tsx (2)

76-116: DOM measurement could be more robust

The DOM measurement logic works but should be more defensive against potential layout changes. Consider adding null checks for each child and dynamicContent access.

 cellIndexesWithAllowCellWrapping.forEach((index: number) => {
   const child = children[index] as HTMLElement;
+  if (!child) return;
   const dynamicContent = child.querySelector(
     ".t--table-cell-tooltip-target",
   );

-  if (dynamicContent) {
+  if (dynamicContent instanceof HTMLElement) {
     const styles = window.getComputedStyle(dynamicContent);

     normalCellHeight +=
-      (dynamicContent as HTMLElement).offsetHeight +
+      dynamicContent.offsetHeight +
       parseFloat(styles.marginTop) +
       parseFloat(styles.marginBottom) +
       parseFloat(styles.paddingTop) +
       parseFloat(styles.paddingBottom);
   }
 });

48-66: hasRowDataChanged could be optimized for large datasets

The implementation is correct but performs a shallow comparison on each property. For large datasets, consider implementing a more efficient equality check or using a memoization library.

function hasRowDataChanged(
  currentData: Record<string, unknown>,
  previousData: Record<string, unknown> | null,
): boolean {
  if (!previousData) return true;

  const currentKeys = Object.keys(currentData);

+  // Fast path: Check if references are equal first
+  if (currentData === previousData) return false;

  for (const key of currentKeys) {
    if (currentData[key] !== previousData[key]) {
      return true;
    }
  }

  return false;

5-5: Introduce VariableInfiniteVirtualList for dynamic heights
Swapping from FixedInfiniteVirtualList to VariableInfiniteVirtualList aligns perfectly with the goal of supporting variable row heights.


43-53:

Details

❓ Verification inconclusive

Confirm correct prop passing in VariableInfiniteVirtualList
Everything appears consistent with the dynamic row-height approach. Verify that props like onItemsRendered and infiniteLoaderListRef are fully tested with infinite scrolling.


🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Verify occurrences of VariableInfiniteVirtualList usage across the codebase
rg "VariableInfiniteVirtualList"

Length of output: 641


Action: Verify Infinite Scroll Prop Passing and Testing Coverage

The usage of VariableInfiniteVirtualList in this file appears to align with the dynamic row-height approach. However, please ensure that key props such as onItemsRendered and infiniteLoaderListRef are thoroughly covered in your infinite scrolling test cases. In particular:

  • Confirm that tests effectively simulate infinite scroll scenarios to validate that onItemsRendered is invoked at the proper times.
  • Verify that infiniteLoaderListRef is properly handled within the component, as observed in its usage across the codebase (see import from TableBodyCoreComponents/VirtualList).
app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/VirtualTable/BaseVirtualList.tsx (4)

1-19: Imports and extended props look good
Imports correctly support variable-sized virtualization with react-window. No issues found.


21-43: rowRenderer function is well-structured
Appropriately handles both valid row data and empty rows. Meshes nicely with the Row component.


45-55: BaseVirtualListProps definition is comprehensive
Thoroughly covers references, props, and item details needed for variable-size rendering.


57-130: BaseVirtualList component is properly implemented
Smart use of useCallback for dynamic row sizing and a careful default fallback enhance clarity and performance.

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/VirtualTable/useRowHeightMeasurement.tsx (1)

1-25: Initial interfaces are well-defined
They neatly outline the data structures and references needed for measuring row heights.

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBodyCoreComponents/VirtualList.tsx (2)

3-6: Correct type imports for variable-size usage
Switching to VariableSizeList types is correct for dynamic row heights. No issues here.

Also applies to: 16-16


24-25: VariableInfiniteVirtualList meets dynamic row needs
Renaming from fixed to variable infinite list is well-structured. The memoized component usage looks good.

app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/TableBodyCoreComponents/Row.tsx (5)

2-4: Imports properly updated for variable row height functionality.

The new imports support the implementation of dynamic row height calculations for the Table Widget's infinite scroll functionality.

Also applies to: 8-9


16-18: Added well-typed props for row height management.

These new properties provide the necessary references for the variable height implementation, allowing row heights to be measured, stored, and used by the virtual list component.


22-24: Added ref and state management for row measurement.

The rowRef provides access to the DOM element for measurement, while forceUpdate creates a mechanism to trigger re-renders when needed. The isInfiniteScrollEnabled flag is appropriately extracted from context.

Also applies to: 29-29


38-58: Implemented row height measurement with appropriate hooks and effects.

The implementation correctly:

  1. Uses useColumnVariableHeight to identify columns needing variable height
  2. Uses useRowHeightMeasurement to calculate actual row heights
  3. Implements an effect to mark rows for remeasurement when wrapping columns change

The dependency array in the useEffect correctly includes wrappingColumns, ensuring updates happen when needed.


66-66: Connected ref to row DOM element for measurement.

Adding the ref to rowProps ensures the DOM element can be accessed for height measurement.

58-58: Consider clarifying why index 0 is pre-populated.

The array initialization with [0] isn't immediately obvious. Consider adding a comment explaining why index 0 is included by default in cellIndexesWithHTMLCell.

-    const cellIndexesWithHTMLCell: number[] = [0];
+    // Include index 0 by default as it often contains HTML content (e.g., row number or selection cell)
+    const cellIndexesWithHTMLCell: number[] = [0];

27-133: Well-implemented hook with good separation of concerns.

The implementation effectively handles dynamic row height measurement for both wrapped text and HTML content. The early return conditions are well-structured, and the effect dependencies are correctly specified.

38-49: Good integration of the height measurement hook.

The integration of useRowHeightMeasurement with the appropriate props looks good. This cleanly separates the measurement logic from the rendering component.

Does this PR also account for the possibility of multiple columns allowing cell wrapping and HTML content? In such cases, we should ensure that the maximum height is taken into consideration. I haven't explored this in detail, but please ensure that we handle this scenario appropriately.

Yes, this PR check for the highest height for all rows and uses that in the implementation

- Introduced useMemo for prerequisite checks to optimize performance.
- Added comprehensive documentation for the useRowHeightMeasurement hook, detailing its functionality and measurement process.

54-65: Use consistent memoization to improve performance

Good decomposition of logical conditions into readable variables. However, isAlreadyCalculated could also benefit from memoization like hasPreRequisitesForInfiniteScroll.

-   rowNeedsMeasurement.current &&
-   rowNeedsMeasurement.current[index] === false;

104-121: Extract cell height measurement into a helper function

The logic for measuring cell heights is duplicated between normal cells and HTML cells. Consider extracting this logic into a reusable helper function.

+ const measureCellHeight = (
+   element: HTMLElement,
+   selector: string,
+   extraPaddingMultiplier = 1
+ ): number => {
+   const dynamicContent = element.querySelector(selector);
+   if (!dynamicContent) return 0;

+   return (
+     (dynamicContent as HTMLElement).offsetHeight +
+     parseFloat(styles.marginTop) +
+     parseFloat(styles.marginBottom) +
+     parseFloat(styles.paddingTop) * extraPaddingMultiplier +
+     parseFloat(styles.paddingBottom) * extraPaddingMultiplier
+   );
+ };

  cellIndexesWithAllowCellWrapping.forEach((index: number) => {
    const child = children[index] as HTMLElement;
-   const dynamicContent = child.querySelector(
-     ".t--table-cell-tooltip-target",
-   );
-
-   if (dynamicContent) {
-     const styles = window.getComputedStyle(dynamicContent);
-
-     // Calculate total height including margins and padding
-     normalCellHeight +=
-       (dynamicContent as HTMLElement).offsetHeight +
-       parseFloat(styles.marginTop) +
-       parseFloat(styles.marginBottom) +
-       parseFloat(styles.paddingTop) +
-       parseFloat(styles.paddingBottom);
-   }
+   normalCellHeight += measureCellHeight(
+     child,

  });

27-43: Good documentation implementation

Excellent JSDoc comment that clearly explains the hook's purpose, when it should be used, and the measurement process. This addresses the previous reviewer's request for detailed comments.


44-53: Good implementation of the hook interface

The hook's parameter destructuring is well-organized and matches the interface definition. This makes the code more maintainable and self-documenting.


141-149:

Details

✅ Verification successful

Consider adding a minimum height fallback

The current implementation calculates the total height based on measured elements, but doesn't include a fallback minimum height if measurements fail or return very small values.

  const totalHeight =
-   Math.max(normalCellHeight, htmlCellHeight) +
+   Math.max(normalCellHeight, htmlCellHeight, TABLE_SIZES.DEFAULT.ROW_HEIGHT) +
    TABLE_SIZES.DEFAULT.VERTICAL_PADDING * 2;

🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Check if TABLE_SIZES.DEFAULT.ROW_HEIGHT exists
grep -r "ROW_HEIGHT" app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/Constants.ts

Length of output: 162


Minimum Height Fallback Verified and Recommended

We've confirmed that the constant TABLE_SIZES.DEFAULT.ROW_HEIGHT exists in the constants file (evidenced by the grep search). To ensure a fallback for cases where measured values are too small or fail, please update the Math.max computation as follows:

  • File: app/client/src/widgets/TableWidgetV2/component/VirtualTable/useRowHeightMeasurement.tsx (Lines 141-149)
  • Change: Replace
    Math.max(normalCellHeight, htmlCellHeight) +
    with
    Math.max(normalCellHeight, htmlCellHeight, TABLE_SIZES.DEFAULT.ROW_HEIGHT) +

This change ensures that the calculated row height will always be at least the defined default, improving stability when measurements are inadequate.

83-97: Consider optimizing the cell identification process.

The current implementation potentially processes the same cell twice if it both has HTML content and allows wrapping. Consider tracking these attributes together in a single pass.

-    const cellIndexesWithAllowCellWrapping: number[] = [];
-    const cellIndexesWithHTMLCell: number[] = [];
+    interface CellMeasurementInfo {
+      index: number;
+      hasWrapping: boolean;
+      isHtmlCell: boolean;
+    }
+    const cellsToMeasure: CellMeasurementInfo[] = [];

     if (row?.cells && Array.isArray(row.cells)) {
       row.cells.forEach((cell, index: number) => {
         const typedCell = cell as unknown as CellWithColumnProps;
+        const hasWrapping = !!typedCell?.column?.columnProperties?.allowCellWrapping;
+        const isHtmlCell = typedCell?.column?.columnProperties?.columnType === ColumnTypes.HTML;
 
-        if (typedCell?.column?.columnProperties?.allowCellWrapping) {
-          cellIndexesWithAllowCellWrapping.push(index);
-        }
-
-        if (
-          typedCell?.column?.columnProperties?.columnType === ColumnTypes.HTML
-        ) {
-          cellIndexesWithHTMLCell.push(index);
+        if (hasWrapping || isHtmlCell) {
+          cellsToMeasure.push({ index, hasWrapping, isHtmlCell });
         }
       });
     }

104-139: Combine height calculation logic for better maintainability.

16-25: Well-structured props interface with clear type annotations.

The interface is well-defined with proper TypeScript types and clear documentation comments explaining each property.


27-43: Excellent JSDoc documentation.

The documentation clearly explains the purpose, use cases, and measurement process of the hook. This will help other developers understand and maintain the code.


54-58: Good use of useMemo for derived values.

Using useMemo for the prerequisites calculation prevents unnecessary recalculations on re-renders.


67-158: Thorough implementation with clear logic.

The overall implementation of the useEffect hook is robust and handles edge cases well. It correctly identifies cells that might affect row height, measures them appropriately, and updates the virtualized list to reflect these measurements.

…smithorg#39646)

## Description
This PR adds support for variable height rows in the Table Widget when
using infinite scroll. The implementation dynamically adjusts row
heights based on content, particularly for wrapped text and HTML
content.

## Key Features
1. **Dynamic Row Height Calculation**: Rows automatically resize based
on content length when cell wrapping is enabled or HTML content is
present
2. **Smooth Infinite Scrolling**: Maintains smooth scrolling performance
while supporting variable height rows
3. **Responsive Layout**: Rows adjust in real-time when table data
changes or when cell wrapping is toggled

## Implementation Details
The implementation replaces the fixed-size virtual list with a
variable-size virtual list that can handle rows of different heights:
1. Created a new `BaseVirtualList` component that uses
`VariableSizeList` from react-window
2. Added row height measurement logic in the `Row` component to
calculate optimal heights
3. Implemented a context-based system to store and update row heights
4. Created a utility hook `useColumnVariableHeight` to track columns
that need variable height handling

## Testing
Added comprehensive Cypress tests that verify:
1. Fixed height behavior when cell wrapping is disabled
2. Increased row heights when cell wrapping is enabled
3. Dynamic height updates when content changes
4. Proper handling of HTML content that have extended heights
5. Reverting to fixed height when wrapping is disabled


Fixes appsmithorg#39089
