Event when we navigate to a cell in a grid?

[Murray]

Hi,

Is there an
event that we can use when we navigate to a cell in a grid either by tabbing or using the keyboard to navigate?

The purpose of this is to show the cell data on an information panel when the user navigates around using the keyboard, but not necessarily edit it or select it.

I have noticed an issue with tabbing and custom drop down list editor.  When tabbing through the cells at a fast pace, sometimes the grid loses focus and the focus goes to a different control on the page and not the
next cell.

Is there anyway after the edit of a cell to regain focus and move to the next cell?

Hi Murray,

 
Basically there is no such event which you can use, however you can attach keydown event handler to the grid table where to execute your custom logic - please check the example below: 

var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
grid.table.bind("keydown",function(e) {
    //check which key is pressed
    //and execute your custom logic based on it
})

Also I would suggest to share your idea at Kendo UserVoice to allow other users vote for it. Most voted ideas are included in next KendoUI releases. 
Kind Regards,
