Hi, One possible solution:
1) only textField has the setTabIndex(1) 2) a custom appearance in the textfield would remove the dotted frame from the text field 3) an event listener in the focused state change of the text field would update the appearance of the combobox to draw or remove the dotted frame. Is this feasible? Sebastian Werner wrote: > > I agree with this. But from the look I think it would be better the > combobox itself has the dotted focus border and not the text field.
