Telerik RadInput delivers the convenience of desktop applications to the web with support for short-cut keys (such as  Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, etc.) and arrow-key navigation. 

  • Shortcuts - key combinations (e.g. Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, etc.) in some cases allow you to perform some tasks faster than you could with the mouse.
  • Arrowkey Navigation - allows end-users to navigate around within a Telerik RadInput structure using the arrow keys.

    • Left/Right arrows - move the cursor one position to the left/right.
    • Up/Down arrows 
      - for RadDateInput/RadNumericTextBox - increases/decreases the date/number entered in the input (the same can be done with the mouse wheel as well);
      - for multi-line RadMaskedTextBox: move the cursor one line up/down;
      - for RadMaskedTextBox with enumeration mask: spin the value one step up/down.

The  screenshot below illustrates how you can use the arrowkeys to navigate within a RadMaskedTextBox
