You can implement a custom handler for a key using the registerKeyHandler(key, handler) method.
jQuery
JavaScript
function registerKeyHandlers () { let dateBox = $("#dateBoxContainer").dxDateBox("instance"); dateBox.registerKeyHandler("backspace", function (e) { // The argument "e" contains information on the event }); dateBox.registerKeyHandler("space", function (e) { // ... }); }
Angular
TypeScript
import { ..., ViewChild, AfterViewInit } from '@angular/core'; import { DxDateBoxModule, DxDateBoxComponent } from 'devextreme-angular'; // ... export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit { @ViewChild(DxDateBoxComponent) dateBox: DxDateBoxComponent ngAfterViewInit () { this.dateBox.instance.registerKeyHandler("backspace", function (e) { // The argument "e" contains information on the event }); this.dateBox.instance.registerKeyHandler("space", function (e) { // ... }); } } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxDateBoxModule ], // ... })
