One trick to this is that objects are included into a group if
relayerGroupedControls is set to true and the layer of the control is set
to the layer above the group. Meaning that if you have this arrangement:
stack "Untitled 1"
card id 1002
| group id 1005 (1005)
| | button "Button" (1006)
|
Hi MarkwI did not see your later post that the fields were grouped. My
scenario was just the most basic case of fields on a card. I guess it would
work if all the fields were in 1 group but having fields in different groups
certainly complicates things. Cool solution though. I wasn’t aware

Hi
The tab order will follow the field’s layer from lowest to highest. (Or from
highest to lowest if you hold down the SHIFT key while tabbing just like other
apps.)
So as you said with your original fields they will tab in this order.
field “a" - Layer 9
field ”c" - Layer 12
field “b" -
Thanks Geoff. Very interesting. That was, of course, my problem. The items were
grouped and the relayerGroupedControls property was false. Changing it to true
immediately made it possible to relayer the controls. I feel like I’ve just
been introduced to huge component of livecode that I never
