Calendar / Keyboard navigation

Navigation between dates with the arrow keys



  • This example demonstrates the navigation between dates with the arrow keys into the RadCalendar and RadDatePicker controls. The navigation could be enabled with setting the EnableKeyboardNavigation property to true:

    <telerik:RadCalendar EnableKeyboardNavigation="true" EnableMultiSelect="false" runat="server" ID="RadCalendar1" />

    When the EnableKeyboardNavigation is set to true the user could navigate with:

    • Left arrow - moves one date left form the current date
    • Right arrow - moves one date right from the current date
    • Top arrow - moves one week before the current date
    • Bottom arrow - moves one week after the current date

    If the user presses the Enter key or spacebar key the date will be selected.
    Note that the EnableMultyDateSelecttion property of the calendar should be set to false.

    You can focus the calendar control with pressing CTRL + Y.
