[Solved] onkeypress event in RADGRID

[Mahendra s]

Hi

I want to find if
LEFT CTRL key 
LEFT SHIFT key
RIGHT CTRL key
RIGHT SHIFT key
has been pressed while clicking on the row in the grid

i am using this code in javascript, but does not get fired 

function

OnKeyPress(sender, eventArgs) {

 

 

var key = eventArgs.get_keyCode();

 

 

alert("here");

 

alert(

"Key code: " + eventArgs.get_keyCode());

 

alert(

"Is Shift pressed: " + eventArgs.get_IsShiftPressed());

 

alert(

"Is Ctrl pressed: " + eventArgs.get_IsCtrlPressed());

 

alert(

"Is Alt pressed: " + eventArgs.get_IsAltPressed());

 

alert(

"Is Left Alt: " + eventArgs.get_domEvent().get_altLeft());

 

}

in the RADGRID , i have done the following settings

 

<

ClientSettings AllowKeyboardNavigation

="true"

 

<

ClientEvents OnKeyPress="OnKeyPress" OnRowClick="telerik_RowClick" OnRowCreated="telerik_RowCreated" OnRowDeselected="telerik_RowDeselected"

 

 

OnRowSelected="telerik_RowSelected" />

 

 

 

thanks

Try using these properties:

<ClientSettings AllowKeyboardNavigation="true" ClientEvents-OnKeyPress="KeyPressed">
      <Selecting AllowRowSelect="true" />
</ClientSettings>

I think you were missing the ClientEvents-OnKeyPress properties.

Hello Mahendra,

These keys are escaped by design on purpose. If you want to break on their having been hit, just attach a keydown event handler for the grid inline:

<RadGrid ID="..."    onkeydonw="keyDownHandler ..............>

I hope this helps.
