I have add and delete buttons within my grid and using the tab key they get passed up and the focus is on the first column on the next line. How can I have my buttons gain focus? I have to make my app fully keyboard friendly. Any other issues I might face with the grid using the keyboard?
Thank You

Hi jerry,
Thank you for writing. Actually, RadGridView does not support the behavior out of the box. The command column is skipped if you press a tab while in edit mode and is not skipped if the grid is not in edit mode. That is because this type of column is specific and has not default editor. The only way to implement your requirement can be using a custom grid behavior, inheritor of BaseGridBehavior class and overriding ProcessTabKey event. Let me know if you need additional assistance on the topic.
Kind regards,

Hello jerry,
Thank you for getting back to me. Since the described scenario is a custom one, we do not have an available example or code snippet. However, changing the behavior with a custom one is a relatively simple task. Please, consider the following code as a simple example on how to do that:
