Rownames not showing when gt is set to interactive

[22ermiller]

I would like rownames to appear on my gt table while being able to interactively sort and navigate through pages, but whenever I make the gt object interactive the rownames go away.

Here is a simple reproducible example:

library(tibble)
library(gt)

gt(iris, rownames_to_stub = T)

gt(iris, rownames_to_stub = T) %>% 
  opt_interactive()

Is this result intentional or a bug?

Just realized that this still doesn't work. somehow, would have to rename the Sepal.Width column to .rownames for reactable

library(tibble)
library(gt)

gt(iris, rownames_to_stub = T)

gt(iris, rowname_col = "Sepal.Width") %>% 
  opt_interactive()

Opened #1711 to address this
