Key Search in Display Templte

[Former Member]

hi all,

What is the purpose of “Key Search" at “General Tab" of Display Template?

Which situation it will use?

Thanks in advance

This behavior is typical in the iBrowser applet, tree mode, list box, or drop down combo mode, but with the iGrid it is something you can enable/disable. With the KeySearch parameter, the iGrid will support key 'indexing' in the first column only, so if you have a list such as:

ABC

ADF

BBB

CDF

CHJ

DWI

Pressing the A key will highlight (SelectionEvent is also triggered) the ABC row, and pressing it a second time will highlight the ADF row. If you press it a third time, since no more records start with the 'A' character it will loop around back to the top and select the first row again.

Hi,

The key search searches for the first matching value in the selected columns for the key pressed.

I think you can use this by using script with Applet methods.
