Invoke editing in dhtmlxGrid

Hello !

Is it possible that dxhtmlGrid starts column editing when pressing any key, not just F2 ?
The intention is that the user can navigate using the keyboard and type directly new values in the cell.

Thanks,

Ulrich

Grid has onKeyPress event which can be used for such purpose, code will look similar to next


mygrid.attachEvent("onKeyPress",function(key){
    if (key==MY_KEY_CODE){
       mygrid.editCell(); //switch current cell to edit state
       return false; //block default action
    }
});
