Keyboard Navigation

A user can use the following keys to interact with the MultiView component:

Key Action
← / ↑ Moves focus to the previous view.
→ / ↓ Moves focus to the next view.
Home Moves focus to the first view.
End Moves focus to the last view.

Use the registerKeyHandler(key, handler) method to implement a custom handler for a key.

jQuery
JavaScript
function registerKeyHandlers () {
    const multiView = $("#multiViewContainer").dxMultiView("instance");
    multiView.registerKeyHandler("backspace", function(e) {
        // The argument "e" contains information on the event
    });
    multiView.registerKeyHandler("space", function(e) {
        // ...
    });
}
Angular
TypeScript
import { ..., ViewChild, AfterViewInit } from '@angular/core';
import { DxMultiViewModule, DxMultiViewComponent } from 'devextreme-angular';
// ...
export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit {
    @ViewChild(DxMultiViewComponent, { static: false }) multiView: DxMultiViewComponent;
    // Prior to Angular 8
    // @ViewChild(DxMultiViewComponent) multiView: DxMultiViewComponent;

    ngAfterViewInit () {
        this.multiView.instance.registerKeyHandler('backspace', function(e) {
            // The argument "e" contains information on the event
        });
        this.multiView.instance.registerKeyHandler('space', function(e) {
            // ...
        });
    }
}
