Question: Is there a way to navigate the table with key arrows? about ka-table

[komarovalexander]

Hi
Thanks for the question - It is a great proposal. I was thinking to add a demo with described behavior but decided to make the simplest one first and wait for feedback from users.

I wanted to provide you an example on stackblitz but this service does not work properly at this time
stackblitz/core#1367 - I hope they will fix it soon.

The main idea of the ka-table is that it should be extendable, therefore to show you how to achieve it, I've quickly created a demo
https://komarovalexander.github.io/ka-table/#/keyboard-navigation
you can use it now as a basis to make any keyboard navigation you want

P.S. thanks for your ideas, I will keep this issue open for a couple of weeks. I will investigate it better and probably will add helpers methods to make it with less lines of code. I also will add more cases for editing and paging to this demo

if you have any ideas feel free to provide them here

That's great!
yes, it works perfectly as a basis for keyboard navigation, thanks

I see what you mean, the current code needed for the keyboard navigation is rather verbose but otherwise works great.
a helper function to quickly add keyboard navigation would be awesome.

I will continue to use the table and drop further questions / suggestions in the issues page 👍🏼
