tabbing between xcontrols

Dear all,

 

I need to tab between multiple XControl controls on my UI front panel.

 

The tab order has been set for each XControl on the front panel

 

The XControls are of the same type and only have a single numeric control in the facade.

 

Currently using the tab key just highlights the numeric control in the XControl facade and does not move the focus to the next XControl as specified by the tab order.

 

Is there any way to tab between XControls?

 

Thanks,

 

P

It might be behaving like a tab within a cluster.  If you have a control selected in a cluster then tabbing will just cycle through controls in that cluster.  You need to CTRL + Up Arrow or Down Arrow to go into or out of structures.  I assume the XControl is behaving like that.  You could try to do some fancy work detecting the tab button press, and then intercept it and press CTRL + Up, then CTRL + Tab if the keyfocus is in your XControl if this is the case.
