FocusScopeManager

Plugin: FocusScopeManager

Description

Creates a focus scope manager for a Handsontable instance. The manager handles focus scopes by listening to keydown, focusin, and click events on the document. Based on the currently focused element, it activates or deactivates the appropriate scope. Focus scope contains its own boundaries and logic that once activated allows to focus specific focusable element within the scope container element and/or switch to specific shortcuts context.

The manager also automatically updates the Core#isListening state of the Handsontable instance based on the current state of the scopes.
