I have a dt.DataTable and want to use the row information of it when clicking on a cell and use ‘active\_cell’ in a callback. But pagination and filtering affect the row number. So when clicking on the next side of the table it begins with row 0, same when filtering the table. Is there any way to get the row information of the orignal total dataframe?

Best regards!
