Grid behavior

Is there any way to change grid behavior to get similar to the old classic windows?
We just forced some windows to only be locked to Kinetic, and the main complaint we’ve gotten so far is the grid behavior. Like pressing down on the arrow key in classic grid, would go down one cell, and highlight the entire text so they could start typing, now it just automatically indexes to the end of the cell.

I’ve tried looking in properties but I haven’t found anything, I’m hoping I’m missing something obvious.

I know its not ideal… but if you index down (down arrow), yes, it automatically puts the cursor at the end…

but if you then hit shift+up, it highlights the full content of the cell.

Oddly, if its a numeric column, down arrow WILL highlight the content… is only the string columns that move the cursor to the end.

Sad because KendoUI grid keyboard behavior is ‘spreadsheet-like’ out of box. They broke it.
