Focus
With the AccessKey property of the Control you can set the desired key for quick navigation to the Stepper.
<telerik:RadStepper runat="server" ID="RadStepper1" AccessKey="W">
As result Alt + W focuses the Stepper.
SelectOnFocus
RadStepper exposes the SelectOnFocus property, applicable for scenarios when keyboard is used for navigation.
The boolean value set to the property indicates whether the selection will change upon focus change or it will require additional action (Enter or Space bar key press) in order to select the focused step. By default SelectOnFocus is set to false.
<telerik:RadStepper runat="server" SelectOnFocus="true">
