Due to accessibility matters this shortcut currently focuses the last tool in the toolbar. It would be great if developers could be available to modify the default behavior and attach a special command that behaves more like the MS Word's Shift+Tab command. The following behavior is the one experienced in desktop rich text editors: 1. In text - The command adds a simple TAB (e.g. four white spaces). 2. In list - The selected list item is being outdented. 3. In table - The cursor moves to the previous cell. A customization that provides such behavior can be easily implemented using a custom command and the addShortCut method: <telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1" runat="server" OnClientLoad="OnClientLoad"> <Content> Text<br/> <ol> <li>Item 1</li> <li>Item 2</li> <li>Item 3</li> <li>Item 4</li> <li>Item 5</li> </ol> <br/> <table> <tr> <td>Cell</td> <td>Cell</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Cell</td> <td>Cell</td> </tr> </table> </Content> </telerik:RadEditor> <script type="text/javascript"> function OnClientLoad(editor, args) { var shortcutManager = editor.get_shortCutManager(); if (shortcutManager.findShortCutByName("InsertTabMozilla")) { shortcutManager.removeShortCut("InsertTabMozilla"); editor.addShortCut("InsertTab", "TAB"); } editor.addShortCut("ShiftTabCommand", "Shift+TAB"); editor.addShortCut("Underline", "Cmd+U"); } Telerik.Web.UI.Editor.CommandList["ShiftTabCommand"] = function (commandName, editor, args) { var selectedElement = editor.getSelectedElement(); var nodeName = selectedElement.nodeName; if (nodeName === "LI") { editor.fire("Outdent"); } else if (nodeName === "TD") { Telerik.Web.UI.Editor.Utils.MoveToPreviousCell(selectedElement, editor); } else { editor.fire("InsertTab"); } }; </script>
