Subject: [JAVA2D] Question on tab
order
I am pretty new to
swing so I am just learning. In writing some sample applications I have had
problems predicting and setting tab order and focus, even the initial focus.
Can anyone point me to any reference/documentation or whatever that discusses
how to set up tab order on the various components without having to write your
own FocusListener. Seems like there has to be some simple, straight-forward
way to do it.
Some of my sample
apps have several main (JWindows) and have several components within
components in the windows. So I would expect that I can set up the tab order
to start with at JTextField, go to a tool bar with several buttons, go through
those buttons in order, go to a JTextArea, and then back to the beginning
JTextField. Also I would expect at any point in time shift-Tab would take you
in reverse order. This is all possible, right?
Thanks in advance
for any info or advice.
