Inquiry on Keyboard-Only Grouping and Resizing of columns in RadGrid for C# Webforms for WCAG 2.2 Level AA Compliance
Dear Telerik Technical Support Team,

I am reaching out to inquire about the accessibility features of the RadGrid component in C# Webforms, specifically regarding the ability to perform grouping and resizing of columns using keyboard-only navigation in compliance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards.

Our organization is committed to ensuring that our web applications meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA requirements. A critical part of this compliance involves enabling users to group and sort columns in data grids using only the keyboard.

Could you please confirm if the RadGrid component supports keyboard-only grouping and resizing of columns? Additionally, we would appreciate any guidance or documentation you can provide on how to implement and test these accessibility features within the RadGrid component to ensure compliance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA.

Thank you for your assistance with this matter. We look forward to your prompt response.

Hi Ravikumar,

Thank you for your feature request!

The RadGrid component is currently WCAG 2.1 Level A compliant, and its keyboard support  does not offer the ability to control the grouping and resizing features. We have converted your request into a public feedback portal item, allowing other users to vote for it. Once it gains popularity, we will consider implementing and providing such functionality. Please note that this is a complex implementation, and we do not have an example as a temporary solution.

On a side note, the KendoReact Grid and Kendo UI Grid for jQuery components are WCAG 2.2 AA compliant:
