Example - Select language

The following example implements the @handsontable/vue3 component with the option to change the Context Menu language configured. Select a language from the selector above the table and open the Context Menu to see the result.

TIP

Note that the language property is bound to the component separately using language={this.language}", but it could be included in the settings property just as well.
