Tabbing

Bindrid2

@allan , the Editor example at https://editor.datatables.net/examples/inline-editing/tabControl.html is not behaving the way I am expecting it to.
Based on name and the section it is in, I am expecting to be able to click on a cell and have it go to inline edit mode.
I think expect to be able to hit the tab key and have it move to the next cell.

Currently, clicking on a cell does nothing.

Am I misinterpreting the example?

Hi Scott - you aren't missing anything. It does indeed appear to be broken at the moment! I'll look at it shortly and post back.

Slightly oddly, KeyTable is working with the exception of the editOnFocus option there. It just doesn't highlight the cell as I intentionally didn't include the CSS for KeyTable - it wasn't needed since the cell should immediately show as editable!

I've committed a fix on a 2.4 branch of KeyTable which addresses this issue. v2.5 currently contains a change which is going to introduce a new double click to immediate edit, a bit like how it works in Excel.

Thanks again for highlighting this.

@Allan, I took it and dropped it into my downloaded Editor example you created (.net version). It works great. Thank you.

I need the very feature on pages that I am currently working on.

Thank you!

The tab between columns example at https://editor.datatables.net/examples/inline-editing/tabControl.html is not entering inline edit mode and therefore not demonstrating any example for tab between columns. At present I am trying to make Tab between columns work and my example, using the latest auto-build download, also does not work.
