3.3.3.4 Interactive Grid Region
Learn about keyboard shortcuts for the interactive grid region.
Interactive grid regions come with many keyboard shortcuts and keyboard-specific features to help the keyboard-only and power user. Specifically, they are designed to provide all functionality that is available with the mouse to keyboard users.
In addition, the grid containing the data provides two distinct modes of interaction: Navigation and Edit mode. Navigation mode is designed for use when the grid is not currently editable and allows fast and easy navigation around the grid using keyboard. Navigation mode is the default and the only mode if the interactive grid is not editable. Edit mode is designed for use when the grid is currently editable, and keyboard behavior differs slightly.
The interactive grid region consists of multiple separate user interface elements, some of which handle tab stops differently depending on the element type and the expected keyboard semantics. For example, the toolbar and pagination controls are implemented as separate tab stops, while the grid view, icon view, and detail view (when it supports selection) are implemented as a single tab stop where cursor key navigation is used to move around the view elements when the view has focus.
The following tables list available keyboard shortcuts in interactive grid regions. General shortcuts work in both navigation mode and in edit mode.
