I have an embedded dropdown menu within a table column. When I click on the dropdown the menu appears for a split second and then instantly disappears before I can select anything. If I hold down the dropdown option it stays and gives me a chance to click an option, but as soon as it populates the table it disappears.
column parameters:
dropdown parameters
dropdown action performed script
def runAction(self, event):
"""
This event is fired when the 'action' of the component occurs.
Arguments:
self: A reference to the component that is invoking this function.
event: An empty event object.

column = self.view.params.column
row = self.view.params.rowIndex
value = self.view.params.value
messageType = 'UpdateColumn'
payload = {'column':column, 'row':row, 'value':value}
system.perspective.sendMessage(messageType, payload, scope='page')

table on edit complete, although it's my understanding that this shouldn't matter for an embedded view

#update dataset with edited value

Thanks!
