Hi, the problem really happens when the whole table databinding is operating : I slowed down the whole things delaying events to occur.
I memorize focused elem (this.foc) ; this.sequences = sequences; // this step updates the whole table and triggs the angular databing. I added a 5s timeout to allow table refresh: setTimeout(_ => {if (this.foc) { console.log("focused ",this.foc);this.foc. nativeElement.focus();}},5000); the whole table is nicely updated. but when the timeout occurs, the log displays nicely the component. but the focus now replies with : ERROR TypeError: Cannot read property 'focus' of undefined I suppose this is because the nativelement reference has been removed and replaced with a new one after view updates.
