Hi,
Is there a painless way to change the Control Order in a Window? I have
some fairly busy windows (several Editfields etc…) and when comes the
time to re-order the way the user can move from field to field the
process is quite tedious (change the controlorder property in the pane
one by one).
For those who have/do practice FileMaker, you can do this simply by
first resetting the default Field order and then clic with your mouse in
the sequence you wish the user to tab from field to field. Much quicker!!
Is anyone interested to join me in a feature request, if this doesn't
exist yet in RB?
Youri

There's nothing much faster than that, but there may be some tricks
you're not aware of. First, be sure to turn on Show Control Order so
you can see all of them at once. Second, you can select multiple
controls, and move them all at once by entering a new ControlOrder
property -- all the selected controls will be put together, in their
preexisting relative order, at the specified control order position (or
as close to it as possible).
HTH,
- Joe
