Hi Team,

 

I'm Trying to capture "Shift + Tab" key combination is pressed or not in textarea/Combobox control. unfortunately I'm able to get only the last key pressed that is "tab". But my requirement is I need to detect "Shift + Tab". 

Wich event I should use to detect "Shift + Tab" key

Can anyone help me..

I'm using this in textarea and combobox.

Hello, Karthikeyan,

To determine if the shift key is pressed, use the KeyboardEvent.shiftKey property of the event that is used:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/KeyboardEvent/shiftKey

This will provide the information if the shift key was pressed at the same time the tab key was pressed.

Regards,
Stefan

Currently, the event can only be added only to a wrapper element around the ComboBox.

If you wish, you can log a request to add a built-in onKeyDown even to the ComboBox:
