Keyboard Handling for Item Selection

The following keys and key combinations are used for selecting one or multiple items from a list.

Single Selection

Key combination

Behavior

[Spacebar]

If focus is on an item, selects the item and deselects all others.

Multi Selection

Key combination

Behavior

[Spacebar]

If focus is on an item, selects the item in addition to all previously selected items.

[Shift] + [Up arrow]

If focus is on an item, changes selection state (selected/ not selected) to the item above.

[Shift] + [Down arrow]

If focus is on an item, changes selection state (selected/ not selected) to the item below.

[Ctrl] + [A]

Selects all items which the user can reach in the current view by scrolling or paging.

If all items are selected, deselects all items.

This is the default behavior of a list.

[Ctrl] + [Shift] + [A]

Deselects all items which the user can reach in the current view by scrolling or paging.

To select items , you can no longer use [Ctrl][A]. You have to use [Spacebar] for single selection or [Shift] + [Up arrow] or [Down arrow] for multiple selection.

This is the behavior if multiSelectMode is set to ClearAll for a list.
