Can not access and change property of a variable

I am trying to modify a property of an object.

console.log(dataset); 
// -> This shows object with an 'ids' property, and it is an array with 7 elements.

But 

console.log(dataset.ids); //shows an empty array

Please take a look at this image, it describles how 'dataset' look like: weired js

Can you explain why?

Thank you!

It's probably because your dataset.ids array isn't filled yet on the init.

Why?

When your open your panel from the Chrome console to inspect in details of dataset, Chrome console just recall a console log on the reference object.

At this time, the array is filled.

You should probably search a hook from your KanbanView object where you are sure this array is filled if you want to access it.

This console behavior could be confusing the first time when you face such case!
