Hi Mark, Why is wxTAB_TRAVERSAL needed in a panel?
Tabbing from a field to the previous/next by using the shift+tab/tab keys were possible in non-dialog windows when using a panel. Should the wxTAB_TRAVERSAL style be used for beeing able to do this, and the previous way was just a helpful bug? Or wxTAB_TRAVERSAL should be used for another efect? Thanks.
