datatable editing and focus

[defyentParticipant]

Hello,

It seems that when a datatable is in row edit mode, and it loses focus via the keyboard, ie using the tab key, it does not exit edit mode the same way it does when someone clicks outside of the table. Is there a way to fix this?

Hello defyent,

Please, provide us with more details about what you are expecting.
What is your final goal?
If you want when one cell is not on focus then you could use specific settings.
Please, take a look at this demo.
I would like to purpose your attention to the editSettings property.
Or you could use methods to force the jqxDataTable to finish the editing with the endRowEdit or endCellEdit method.

Hello, thanks for the reply. What I would like is that the row ends edit mode when the cursor leaves the row/table, the same way it does when you click outside of the browser. Unfortunately it seems that when the cursor enters a new widget (outside of the datatable) via keyboard control, that no methods are triggered which would allow me to call endRowEdit, maybe this is a browser limitation.

Hello defyent,

Could you clarify it?
Please, provide us with a simplified example (jseditor/jsfiddle) that demonstrates your case.
