While an editable cell is selected, you can select other cells using Ctrl or Shift+click without enabling editing in the new cells and maintaining editing in the original cell.
Once editing mode is initiated, users can navigate through read-only data cells to editable data cells, maintaining the editing mode. When tabbing through the last column of the pivot table, the first column of the next row is highlighted, and when Shift-Tabbing through the first column in the pivot table, the last column of the previous row is highlighted. When using Tab or Shift+Tab to navigate, data cells containing multiple editable components, as in the case of both an af:inputDate and date picker in the same cell, the Tab highlights each editable component in turn. When using the Enter key to navigate, an active link will automatically be launched for a cell containing an active link. To quickly navigate to the cell below or above the currently selected cell, use Ctrl+arrow keys. While in editing mode, you can navigate through pivot table data cells using Tab or Enter.
