Setting Tab Order for Fields in a Grid Layout
Grid layout allows you to set the sequence of fields that are activated each time a user presses the tab button. You can set the tab order by pointing and clicking in the Web Applet Layout Editor. To set the tab order
- Navigate to the applet you want to edit, right-click, and then choose Edit Web Layout.
- In the Mode field of Web Controls toolbar, choose the applet mode that you want to edit.
- Select the Format menu, and then select Set Tab Order.
The Applet Layout Editor changes to Set Tab Order mode. Applet controls appear with a number next to them. The number indicates the sequence in which the user will progress through the controls using the tab button.
- Define the tab order by clicking on controls in the sequence you want.
Each time you select a control the control is assigned a sequence number.
NOTE: If you do not click on a control, for example if you click on the layout background, the Web Applet Editor returns to normal edit mode and you must set tab order again from the beginning.
- Choose File > Save.
- Select Format > Set Tab Order.
The Applet Layout Editor returns to normal edit mode.
- Repeat steps Step 1 through Step 6 for each applet Web template mode.
