Topic: datatables pro w/ fontawesome svg
Expected behavior
Clicking on a header shows an arrow icon indicating sort direction. Clicking the header causes it to rotate. https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/standard/data/datatables/
Actual behavior
The icon doesn't seem to rotate if I am using SVG FontAwesome. It appears, just doesn't rotate. The column sort updates just fine.

I've tried troubleshoot your code and this part dom.watch(); was what interfered with datatable code. It monitors changes in dom and when icon was rotated it was replaced with "fresh one".

Thank you. I'll see if I can find a workaround. Without dom.watch(), .fa elements aren't switched to svg. If I can't find a workaround, I may have to stick w/ .fa css only when it comes to mdb.

Removing all my fa svg imports and commands and putting this instead fixed the sorting indicator header.
require("@fortawesome/fontawesome-pro/css/all.css");
It would be nice to be able to use fa svg, but this will work, at least for now.
Thanks again.

Thanks for the feedback.
How are you importing FA?

import { library, dom } from "@fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core";
import { faArrowUp } from "@fortawesome/pro-solid-svg-icons";
library.add( faArrowUp );dom.watch();

Sorry, I don't know the markdown syntax here.

And when you inspect arrow styles what do you see for this style:
.fa-solid, .fas {
font-family: "Font Awesome 6 Free";
font-weight: 900;
}
Initially there is no style for the SVG. But once I click on it and no matter how many times I click on it, it stays stick at style="transform:rotate(0deg)".
