How do I set the tab sequence so that it will progress from a field in the body to a field in a portal? and then continue down that same column in the portal?
You can’t set a tab order to fields in a portal. This has been a big problem of mine for some time.
Hey Servoy guys there any talk of fixing this in Servoy 4?
Hi Jim,
A workaround is to put an onFocusLost method on the form element, which requests focus on the tab element. Have you tried that?
BTW, I meant to say tableview in a tabpanel rather than ‘portal’
I am sorry to report that your suggestion does not work in a portal. The reason why is that when you launch a script on loosing focus, by the time be method launches, you are on another element and then when it leave to go to the field you requested, it triggers another method for the field you left. It thereby creates an endless loop.
Any other suggestions?
Sorry, no suggestions. I gave up using portals in preference to tableview in a tabpanel. Is that possible for you?
