I want to disable alphanumeric shortcuts for cell editing

[tim.fischer]

Hi,
When you navigate your table and press any alphanumeric key, the cells content will be automatically replaced with this key and you can continue editing.

I dislike this behaviour and want to disable it.

I found this documentation page https://handsontable.com/docs/javascript-data-grid/keyboard-shortcuts/#edition-keyboard-shortcuts

What do I have to do to disable all alphanumeric “shortcuts”?

For testing, I tried to remove the “enter” shortcut (which works) following this example.

Keyboard shortcuts

Thanks

Hi @tim.fischer

To do this, you will need to use our Shortcut Manager, and simply remove the shortcuts in question. Here’s a section about removing the shortcuts: https://handsontable.com/docs/javascript-data-grid/keyboard-shortcuts/#remove-a-keyboard-shortcut
