Developing with dbicList - Auto Navigation Between Cell Edits.

Glossary Item Box

Auto Navigation

By default, going into edit mode will be finished as soon as the edit label is removed from the list. To edit another line item or cell, the user will have to click on that new line item or cell, or invoke code that will make another call to the EditCell method.

However, there may be times when the developer wants to keep the edit mode going so that the user can edit additional line items or cells. To do this, the developer must set the EditAutoNavigate property to true. When this happens, the edit mode will attempt to edit the next line item or cell in the list when the previous line item or cell has finished. This will continue until there are no longer any line items or cells to edit, or if the user clicks off the edit label. When EditAutoNavigate is true, the edit mode will recognize the following navigation keys.

·         <Esc>: The original text is written back to the line item or cell, and edit mode is canceled.

·         <Enter> and <Tab>: The current text in the edit label is written back to the line item or cell, and the edit label will go to the next available line item or cell.

·         <Shift Tab>: The current text in the edit label is written back to the line item or cell, and the edit label will go to the previous available line item or cell.
