DxGrid.EditNextCellOnEnter Property

In EditCell mode, specifies whether the Grid starts editing the next cell after a user presses Enter.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.Grid.v26.1.dll

Declaration

[DefaultValue(false)]
[Parameter]
public bool EditNextCellOnEnter { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Boolean	false	true to move focus and start editing; false to move focus.

Remarks

The Grid component supports several keyboard shortcuts that speed up navigation and editing. When a user focuses a cell and presses Enter, an in-place editor opens, where the user can modify cell content. If an in-place editor is already open, Enter applies changes and closes the editor.

If the EnterKeyDirection property value is Column/Row, focus moves to another cell. Use the EditNextCellOnEnter property to specify whether the Grid opens an in-place editor in the next cell.

Note

To use the Enter key in DevExpress Blazor Grid, set EditMode to GridEditMode.EditCell.

Run Demo: Edit Cell

Tip

Shift+Enter moves focus in the opposite direction.

Enable EditOnKeyPress to make data entry smoother and faster. This option activates the focused cell editor when the user starts typing, without an extra click or key press.
