Possible to select cell on tab button press, the same way as Excel work?

[spiderchi]

Question
Hi I am working with bootstrap-table2.
To edit cell, if i click or double click on it, its working really good.
but would like to select cell on tab button press, the same way as excel works. Is this possible in the current version?

@spiderchi so far is impossible. here you mean is when press tab button and become editable?

[spiderchi]

@AllenFang Thank you for the reply.
I mean if I am on Row cell 1 and click tab button it should select the next cell in the same Row and make that cell editable.
Is it possible?

@spiderchi sorry we don't have this feature now. Actually, in the legacy version(react-bootstrap-table), we have keyboard navigation feature, just like excel and support the editing cell by press "ENTER"

you can check the legacy website
https://allenfang.github.io/react-bootstrap-table/example.html#keyboard-navigation
and there's a section for "Enter to Edit Cell on Navigating"

However, I didn't implement this feature yet in react-bootstrap-table2. I will consider to implement this feature but i'm busy in my job.. sorry.

@AllenFang Thanks for the information.
I checked legacy version and I am looking the same, but I am using react-bootstrap-table2 so I am not going to mix it up.
Are you going to implement this feature on react-bootstrap-table2 in near future?

@spiderchi not sure. it depends on my time. sorry dude
