The keyboard shortcut handler component uses the Javascript library Mousetrap (https://github.com/ccampbell/mousetrap).

Installation

...

To use the keyboard shortcuts handling, the following JavaScript resources must be included in the header of the used HTML template where all the other JavaScript libraries are defined (e.g. templates/Root.html):

...

Codeblock
theme Eclipse language javascript title bindingConf example
{"new":"alt+n", "copy":"alt+k", "delete":"alt+r", "moveUp":"alt+u", "moveDown":"alt+i", "selectPrevious":"alt+up", "selectNext":"alt+down"}

Available id's are:

id	description	default shortcut
new	Add a new list entry	alt + ctrl + n
copy	Copy the selected list entry	alt + ctrl + c
delete	Delete the selected list entry	alt + ctrl + d
moveUp	Move the selected list entry up	alt + ctrl + up
moveDown	Move the selected list entry down	alt + ctrl + down
selectPrevious	Selects the previous list entry	ctrl + up
selectNext	Selects the next list entry	ctrl + down

If no simplifiedConf param is passed, the following defined default value is taken in place:
{"new":"alt+ctrl+n", "copy":"alt+ctrl+c", "delete":"alt+ctrl+d", "moveUp":"alt+ctrl+up", "moveDown":"alt+ctrl+down", "selectPrevious":"ctrl+up", "selectNext":"ctrl+down"}!

searchGlobalList (boolean, [optional])

...

If no searchGlobalList param is passed, it's default value "true" is taken in place.

System Variables

To simplify the configuration of the shortcuts, the system variable shortcutConfig can be used within the javascript call.

registerListShortcuts('${shortcutConfig}', true);

The variable shortcutConfig can be configured with the following options:

1. Declaration with the config key jaxfront.html.shortcuts.keyConfiguration within the jaxfront.xml config file
2. Setup throug the Global-Definitions with the function setShortcutKeyConfiguratio(String) of GlobalDefinition.java

Supported keys/shortcuts

The shortcuts should be defined as combination like "alt+n", with the plus as seperator.
