Description

Keyboard navigation provides all web and app users with a fast keyboard-only navigation capability and is also part of the web accessibility features–it enables users with disabilities to fully control their website or app access through the keyboard.

By default, users can only navigate to links, buttons, and form controls with a keyboard. The navigation order in which interactive items receive keyboard focus has to be logical and intuitive. Generally, keyboard navigation logic needs to follow the visual horizontal and vertical flow of the page, for example, left to right and top to bottom, header first followed by the main and then the page navigation.

The keyboard navigation of the Kendo UI for jQuery ColorGradient is always available as demonstrated in this demo.

This ColorGradient example is part of a unique collection of hundreds of jQuery demos, with which you can see all Kendo UI for jQuery components and their features in action. View the source code of the demos from the library or directly adapt, and edit them and their theme appearance in Kendo UI for jQuery Dojo or ThemeBuilder.

The ColorGradient supports the following keyboard shortcuts:

Focus

  • Access key + w Focuses the ColorGradient wrapper.

Supported Keys and User Actions

  • Tab navigates to the next focusable element after the ColorGradient
  • Shift + Tab navigates to the previous focusable element before the ColorGradient
  • Enter Activates the inner ColorGradient navigation.

Keyboard shortcuts available when inner ColorGradient navigation has been activated:

  • Tab navigates to the next ColorGradient element
  • Shift + Tab navigates to the previous ColorGradient Element
  • Enter / Space When the Toggle format button is focused, changes the format between RGB and HEX.
  • Arrow Up / Right When any of the ColorGradient's sliders is focused, increases its value. When the drag handle in the ColorGradient canvas is focused, moves it in the corresponding direction.
  • Arrow Down / Left When any of the ColorGradient's sliders is focused, decreases its value. When the drag handle in the ColorGradient canvas is focused, moves it in the corresponding direction.
  • Esc Returns focus to the wrapper element.
