In one column pressing 'Enter Key' to go to bottom row cell and save automatically when press again

For instance if I have editable table and have column for Enter Qty, Is there a way to press enter and save it and go down and will do same until it reach the end of the row that particular table?

Advance Thanks for awesome help!

Hi Kurt,


I think the batch edit mode of the grid will cover the current requirement. It allows editing the grid cell by cell and navigating through a single column via the keyboard. Pressing enter will take the current cell and edit mode and save the changes when pressed again. I am attaching a short video to demonstrate this.

I hope that this information was helpful for you.

Hi Dimiter,

What I meant was, I should only use enter key to go down the cell and not the down arrow key. Is there a way to do this? Or would be great if tab works by coluimn and not by row. let me know if that make sense

Thanks for awesome support!

Hello Kurt,


This functionality is not supported out of the box. Nevertheless you could achieve it by disabling the built in Grid navigation and manually handle the tab or enter key press. The following methods from the Grid API might be helpful - editCell and closeCell.
