DevExtreme jQuery/JS - Keyboard Support
An end user can use the following keys to interact with the widget.
Key | Action |
---|---|
← → ↑ ↓ | Moves focus to the day nearby. |
Page Up or Ctrl + ← | Displays the previous month. |
Page Down or Ctrl + → | Displays the next month. |
Enter | Selects the focused day. |
You can implement a custom handler for a key using the registerKeyHandler(key, handler) method.
jQuery
JavaScript
function registerKeyHandlers () { let calendar = $("#calendarContainer").dxCalendar("instance"); calendar.registerKeyHandler("backspace", function (e) { // The argument "e" contains information on the event }); calendar.registerKeyHandler("space", function (e) { // ... }); }
Angular
TypeScript
import { ..., ViewChild, AfterViewInit } from "@angular/core"; import { DxCalendarModule, DxCalendarComponent } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit { @ViewChild(DxCalendarComponent, { static: false }) calendar: DxCalendarComponent // Prior to Angular 8 // @ViewChild(DxCalendarComponent) calendar: DxCalendarComponent ngAfterViewInit () { this.calendar.instance.registerKeyHandler("backspace", function (e) { // The argument "e" contains information on the event }); this.calendar.instance.registerKeyHandler("space", function (e) { // ... }); } } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxCalendarModule ], // ... })
