Escape key keymap in editor

[Shane]

I need to overwrite the default escape key keymap. I want to call my own function to cancel the editor when the user presses escape. I have a keymap for handling the Ctrl+s key. Escape doesn't seem to work the same way. Any ideas?

keymap({
   'Ctrl-s': (e) => {
      if (onCtrlSave) {
         let value = getHtml(e.doc);
         onCtrlSave({
            sender: 'kendoEditor',
            value: value
         });
      }
      return true;
   }
}),

Hi Shane,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

The keymap executes the plugins by their order and some of them might prevent the propagation (which is the case with Enter, Esc and some other keys used internally). To avoid this you can just change the order of the plugins:

Please give this a try and let me know if everything works as expected.
