DevExtreme jQuery/JS - Keyboard Support

An end user can use the following keys to interact with the widget.

Key Action
Alt + ↓ Opens the drop-down menu.
Enter or Backspace If the drop-down menu is closed, opens it; otherwise selects the current item.
Esc Closes the drop-down menu.
↑ / ↓ If the drop-down menu is opened, moves focus to the previous/next item.
Tab / Shift + Tab If the drop-down menu is opened, moves focus to the list / search field.

You can implement a custom handler for a key using the registerKeyHandler(key, handler) method.
