Components: Material Table Header design with rowspan and colspan

[badrinath389]

Is it possible to add rowspan and colspan in the material table further? It is a good feature for the end user to understand table data.

@badrinath389 : Did you get the result you expected?

The referenced issues didn't help me as they show how to make expendable rows.
And colspan/rowspan are not that trivial to use in the case of a mat-table headers.

I am struggling with colspans. Do you have an example?

@brianpilati
Unfortunately not, I'm afraid this use case is not possible with current features...

If native HTML logic not works and you consider it as feature, i have a bad news for you.

One thing here is true, this actually isn't issue. But this also isn't feature.
To actually achieve needed result, you need to use [attr.colspan] and / or '[attr.rowspan]'
