Updated over 6 months ago
The keyboard navigation of the TaskBoard is always available.
The ASP.NET Core TaskBoard supports the following keyboard shortcuts:
| SHORTCUT | DESCRIPTION | 
|---|---|
| Tab | navigates to the TaskBoard | 
| Left Arrow | focuses the previous column or a card in the previous column | 
| Right Arrow | focuses the next column or a card in the next column | 
| Up Arrow | focuses the previous card | 
| Down Arrow | focuses the next card | 
| Enter | selects the focused card | 
| Delete | deletes the focused card | 
| Ctrl+e | puts the focused card or column in edit mode | 
| Ctrl+a | adds a new column or card | 
For a complete example, refer to the TaskBoard Keyboard Navigation (Demo).
Register Shortcut
Additional shortcuts can be registered in the TaskBoard, with the registerShortcut client-side API method.
The following example demonstrates how to register a shortcut for focusing the last card in the TaskBoard.
Razor
$(document).ready(function() {
    var taskBoard = $("#taskBoard").data("kendoTaskBoard");
    taskBoard.registerShortcut("*", {
        keyCode: "q",
        ctrlKey: true
    }, {
        handler: function () {
            taskBoard.items().last().focus();
        }
    });
});
