"editOnKeyNavigation"

Defines the behaviour of editable cells when using key navigation.

Synopsis

shape.editOnKeyNavigation(bool = "FALSE" );

Parameter

Parameter Description
shape Name of the object
bool Sets if editing is activated when reaching an editable cell

Description

With standard behaviour, when the tab or arrow keys are used to navigate between cells of a table, editing of the cell values is not activated. The only exception is when the current cell is already edited, and the cell navigated to by a key press is also editable. In that case, editing of the new cell is immediately activated.

When the property Edit on Key Navigation is set to TRUE, this behavior is changed: whenever navigation with keys reaches an editable cell, editing of this cell is immediately activated. This is mainly useful when the table contains a mix of editable and read-only cells and when the property Tabkey Controls Cell Focus is also set to TRUE.
