# Keyboard Navigation

The keyboard navigation of the TaskBoard is always available.

The ASP.NET MVC 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                                    |

## 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.

```
$(document).ready(function() {
    var taskBoard = $("#taskBoard").data("kendoTaskBoard");

    taskBoard.registerShortcut("*", {
        keyCode: "q",
        ctrlKey: true
    }, {
        handler: function () {
            taskBoard.items().last().focus();
        }
    });
});
```
