Changing the Default Keyboard Map

The default input map defines the behavior of the component for end user interaction with the keyboard. For example, by default, when the end user presses the Enter key in an active cell, the edit mode turns on for that cell. You can change this default behavior, by changing the default input map.

Using Code

Create an InputMap object.
Use the GetInputMap method.

Example

This example changes the behavior so that pressing the Enter key moves the active cell to the next row.

Example

This example deactivates the F2 key.
