I have a Kendo Grid.When I press the enter key the enter Key should behave like the tab key function on kendo grid(Focus And put the next cell to editable mode if it is editable true).Is there any method to Override the Kendo Grid Navigation key?
If there is another proper way what is that?

Hello Suranga,

 

Currently the "enter" key is use for going into edit mode, so it cannot be overridden and used instead of tab.

Hi,

As I said there is no solution, rather then implementing the keyboard navigation yourself and disable the navigatable property.

Hi Mini,

The default key mapping that is used in the Grid specifies that the Enter key will open a cell or editing. Modifying that behavior would introduce a breaking change in the component.

If you would like to make the Enter key perform a different action you can disable the built-in navigation and handle the keyboard navigation manually.
