Can't you just set the traversal of all other objects to false? This will prevent the other objects from receiving the focus, which is what tabbing actually does. An easy way to accomplish this is to show all hidden objects on a card, enable select grouped controls, select all, pull up the property inspector, turn off traversal, select only the objects in your group, turn on traversal, hide objects again.
As with all my advice, use at your own peril. :-) Bob On Jan 23, 2013, at 4:50 AM, Lars Brehmer wrote: > I want the tab key to move the cursor between the fields of a group. > > I want to restrict this action to that group.
