How to disable the default keyboard actions in JS Grid?

1 min read

You can disable the default keyboard actions for particular keys in the JavaScript Grid. This can be achieved by removing the key configuration for the particular key from the grid’s keyBoardModule.

This is demonstrated in the below sample code where the key configuration for ‘delete’ key is removed in the dataBound event of the grid.

<script>
    var flag = true;
 
    // Grid’s dataBound event function
    function onDataBound(args) {
        if (flag) {
            // Removing key configuration for delete key
            this.keyboardModule.keyConfigs['delete'] = '';
            flag = false;
        }
    }
</script> 

 

Note:

Once the default action for a key is disabled, you can manually bind required operations for the key action.
