The problem I have with those dialog style ways of setting tab order,
is that they normally only list the component type and name. That
means you need to be familiar with the dialog and the names of all the
components.
If you write all your own code, then that might not be a problem. If
you work on other code you didn't create, as in modifying Lazarus
dialogs for example, it is a problem. I have even seen some code,
where developers don't even bother to rename the default component
names, so you are stuck with Edit1, Edit2, Edit3, etc...
Now what would make those dialog style tab setting really special and
solve the problem mentioned above, is doing what a Mozilla Firefox
addon does. I can't remember it's name, but it shows you the DOM tree
of a web page. You select for example a Table in the DOM tree, and it
flashes a red rectangle around that Table in the Web Page. That way
you know what Table or component you are working with.
Just a thought... :-)

GExperts has a perfectly simple dialog which sets the tab order in the

the order)
Seems to me that this is a perfectly simple dialog to do.
