[syncfusion_flutter_datepicker] - Add focusNode to control cell focus

[guilhermedaldim]

Use case

In my web app I use navigation with keyboard and I need to control focus on the cell for select single or range date, but I can't do this, because the Focus Widget can't enter on cells.

Proposal

If focusNode is exposed in the class DateRangePickerCellDetails I think that I can control the focus in the cell. Or other way to arrive in this result.

Please find the UG documentation below for your reference. If you have any further queries please get back to us. We are always happy to assist you.

Hi @Yuvaraj-Gajaraj,

Thanks for your answer.I've already seen the documentation and the shortcuts with shift + arrows work fine, but I need the first focus on cell with keyboard, without mouse click and I can't do this.

And also I can stylish the next focus cell with this resource.

Hi @guilhermedaldim,

As per our pervious update, if you want to select a range of dates using the keyboard, it is necessary to click on a start cell directly. Currently, the navigation buttons only become focused when navigating through the keyboard using the TAB key and focus is not moved to the date cells, so, we have considered this requirement as a improvement and logged a feature request for it in our feedback portal.

We will prioritize the features of every release based on demand and priority. So, this feature will be available in any of our upcoming releases. You can also track the status of the feature with the feedback below.
