Removing rows from an existing table

[PlasmaHH]

Hi,

I want to update a progress bar with a table on top of it in a live display while also logging some data. I have cobbled together the following example for demonstration, which almost does what I want:

import time
import rich
import rich.align
import rich.console
import rich.panel
import rich.live
import rich.layout
import rich.progress
import rich.traceback
import rich.table

prog = rich.progress.Progress()
t1 = prog.add_task("Scanning....")
table = rich.table.Table( "Time", "M0", "U0", title = "DAQ Data")
table.add_row( "0","0","0" )

group = rich.console.Group( table, prog )

with rich.live.Live(group):
    for i in range(0,50000):
        if( i < 5 ):
            table.add_row( "0","0","0" )
        prog.log(str(i))
        prog.update(t1,advance=0.5)
        time.sleep(0.1)

This results in the following display

which is almost exactly what I want, just one little detail is missing: as you can see I want to limit the amount of table entries, but I want to keep the last N instead of the first N so what I really would like to do is to remove the first row of the table and then add another. How can I do that?

I looked around and all examples I could find would create the table from scratch for similar things, but in this case I can't do that because the table is within the group object and I can't find a way to replace the table in that with a new one

Recreate the table from scratch, and update the renderable.

Not sure I get what you mean... I tried to do

with rich.live.Live(group) as live:

and then live.update(table) (which removes the progress bar) and live.update(group) which doesn't change the table...
