## Content



With built-in keyboard support, InputPanel lets you perform the basic navigation operations such as moving the focus, entering the edit mode of components etc. with a perfect ease just by using keys. Below tables list the supported keys and their corresponding operations.

|   Tab   | The **Tab** key lets you navigate through the editable components on the InputPanel control. On each Tab key press, focus moves to the next editable control such as InputText, InputComboBox etc. This key skips the disabled or non-editable controls like InputLabel, InputSeparator and InputImage. |
| --- | --- |
|   Shift + Tab   | This key combination lets you move to the previous editable control on InputPanel. Similar to Tab key, this key combination also never moves the focus to disabled or non-editable components. |
|   Arrow   | The **Up** and **Down** arrow keys spin the values in controls such as InputNumericBox, InputDatePicker which have spin functionality. The **Left** and **Right** arrow keys work as usual in the editor controls to move the cursor in left and right direction. |
|   F4   | **F4** key press opens the dialog box or dropdown list etc. in case of controls such as InputDatePicker, InputMenu etc. |
