Setting the SecurityFormView part's tabbing order

To set the tabbing order of the reusable part of the Investment application, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Composition Editor for the SecurityFormView part.
  2. From the pop-up menu for the Form part, select Set tabbing > Show tab tags.
  3. From the pop-up menu for the Form part, select Set tabbing > Default Ordering.
  4. From the Toggle Button part's pop-up menus, select Set tabbing > Tab group.

    This will allow the toggle button to be tabbed to by setting it as a Tab Group. Otherwise, you would have to explicitly select it with the mouse or use the arrow keys to give it focus.

  5. Find the part with a tab tag labelled 2 and then drag the tab tag to the toggle button part, so that the toggle button is second in the tabbing order.
  6. Now, save your changes and close the Composition Editor.


Windows

If you've moved some of the tab tags around and decide that you want to start over, you can select Set tabbing > Default Ordering from the Form part pop-up menu to return it to the left to right, top to bottom order.
Note:Once you save these changes to the reusable part, they will automatically be included in the VisualAge Buy Security and VisualAge Sell Security secondary windows, even though the part was added to the secondary windows before these changes were made. That is one of the advantages of using reusable parts!
