Scroll to first selected row in v-data-table - vue.js

Question

I have a v-data-table that I highlight a selected row by adding a selectedRow class to the table row. After an update in another component the v-data-table is refreshed. I want it to automatically scroll back to the selected row. I'm getting an error that the element cannot be found. It seems to not be finding the CSS selector I am trying to pass as the target.
mounted: function () {
eventBus.$on("refreshVendors", () => {
this.getVendors();
// add scrollTo first selected vendor
this.$vuetify.goTo(".selectedRow");
});
this.clearSelectedVendors();
this.getVendors();
},
I've tried using next tick but same error occurs.

Answer 1

For current version=v2.3.6 now, The CSS class for selected row is v-data-table__selected, so changes that line to this.$nextTick(() => this.$vuetify.goTo('.v-data-table__selected')).
Below is one demo based on the snippet in official site:
PS: hit 'Goto' button at the end of the fiddle then you will see the effect.
new Vue({
el: '#app',
vuetify: new Vuetify(),
methods: {
gotoSelectedRow: function () {
this.desserts[1].selected = false
this.desserts[0].selected = true
this.$nextTick(() => this.$vuetify.goTo('.selectedRow'))
}
},
data () {
return {
