I know what you mean, but this bug is a WONTFIX. Tabbing goes from tab group to tab group. A composite is a tab group. All of the remaining children of a composite that are not composites make up a "default tab group", which is traversed last. In this manner, it is possible to make sure that every widget is traversable. Try putting the radio buttons in a composite. |
Build ID: M20070212-1330 Steps To Reproduce: 1. When using Radio buttons, the tab order seems to skip the radio buttons and does not follow the normal, intuitive, top-to-bottom ordering. Example dialog: public static void main (String [] args) { Display display = new Display (); final Shell shell = new Shell (display); shell.setLayout(new GridLayout(2, false)); Label lbl = new Label(shell, SWT.NONE); lbl.setText("label 1"); Text txt1 = new Text(shell, SWT.BORDER); Button rd1 = new Button(shell, SWT.RADIO); rd1.setText("Radio 1"); rd1.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.DEFAULT, SWT.DEFAULT, false, false, 2, 1)); Button rd2 = new Button(shell, SWT.RADIO); rd2.setText("Radio 2"); rd2.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.DEFAULT, SWT.DEFAULT, false, false, 2, 1)); Label lbl2 = new Label(shell, SWT.NONE); lbl2.setText("label 2"); Text txt2 = new Text(shell, SWT.BORDER); shell.setSize(400, 350); shell.open(); while (!shell.isDisposed ()) { if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) { display.sleep (); } } display.dispose(); } The expected behavior can be demonstrated by switching the buttons to PUSH.
