Open your page, and try doing these actions without touching your mouse. Some are just awkward, requiring a lot of Tab key. Some I have not figured out at all:

Scroll the table down and up.

Scroll the table right and left.

Select some text in the table and copy it.



I appreciate your feedback. However, I must admit that I still a bit in the dark about what is awkward about it.

The component is used by a million+ end users and copies traditional Excel/Google Sheets controls.

Are you familiar with those programs?

DataGridXL is an Excel-like component for editing cell values, rather than a table component for selecting rows.

I am curious though if the component is somehow not working like Excel for you... will you perhaps take the time to do a screen recording? I am curious to know what you find awkward, as I especially take pride in the usability of the component. (robbert@datagridxl.com)
