Input Mapping

You can change the keyboard keys that are used to trigger built-in actions to other keys. Actions include navigation, selection, cut, copy, paste, clear, undo, and redo.


The following code sample specifies the keys for moving left.

//use Control+Shift+b
spread.commandManager().setShortcutKey("navigationLeft","B".charCodeAt(0),true,true,false,false);

The following code sample changes the action of the default up and down arrow keys for the active cell.

var activeSheet = spread.getActiveSheet();
//Change the default Up arrow key action to "Page Up" for the active cell.
spread.commandManager().setShortcutKey("navigationPageUp", GC.Spread.Commands.Key.up, false, false, false, false);
//Change the default Down arrow key action to "Page Down" for the active cell.
spread.commandManager().setShortcutKey("navigationPageDown", GC.Spread.Commands.Key.down, false, false, false, false);

The following code sample creates a custom action map for Enter key.

var activeSheet = spread.getActiveSheet();

spread.commandManager().register('myCmd',
       function ColorAction() {                    
            //Click on a cell and press the Enter key.
            activeSheet.getCell(activeSheet.getActiveRowIndex(), activeSheet.getActiveColumnIndex()).backColor("red");
                }
            );
       //Map the created action to the Enter key.
       spread.commandManager().setShortcutKey('myCmd', GC.Spread.Commands.Key.enter, false, false, false, false);

The following code sample deactivates default key actions by removing default up and down arrow key actions.

 $(document).ready(function ()
{
    var spread =
    new GC.Spread.Sheets.Workbook(document.getElementById("ss"),
    {sheetCount:3});
    var activeSheet = spread.getActiveSheet();
    var manager = spread.commandManager();
    var upKey = manager.setShortcutKey(undefined,
    GC.Spread.Commands.Key.up, false, false,  false, false);
    var downKey =
    manager.setShortcutKey(undefined, GC.Spread.Commands.Key.down, false,
    false, false, false);
});
