DevExtreme Angular - Keyboard Support
An end user can use the following keys to interact with the widget.
Key | Action |
---|---|
↑ / ↓ | Moves focus to the previous/next item. |
Page Up / Page Down | Moves focus to the item located a screen above/below the current one. |
Home / End | Moves focus to the first/last item. |
Enter or Space | Selects the focused item. |
Shift + ↑ / ↓ | Shifts the focused item one item up/down. Active if the allowItemReordering option is set to true. |
Delete | Removes the focused item. Active if the allowItemDeleting option is set to true. |
You can implement a custom handler for a key using the registerKeyHandler(key, handler) method.
jQuery
JavaScript
function registerKeyHandlers () { let list = $("#listContainer").dxList("instance"); list.registerKeyHandler("backspace", function (e) { // The argument "e" contains information on the event }); list.registerKeyHandler("space", function (e) { // ... }); }
Angular
TypeScript
import { ..., ViewChild, AfterViewInit } from "@angular/core"; import { DxListModule, DxListComponent } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit { @ViewChild(DxListComponent, { static: false }) list: DxListComponent // Prior to Angular 8 // @ViewChild(DxListComponent) list: DxListComponent ngAfterViewInit () { this.list.instance.registerKeyHandler("backspace", function (e) { // The argument "e" contains information on the event }); this.list.instance.registerKeyHandler("space", function (e) { // ... }); } } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxListModule ], // ... })
