Tab with Edit object

Hi! Every object has a number. When you press tab key in a edit object you want it to come to the next one. Not the third if you understand?

How can i change this so when you press tab it goes to the next one?

It goes by the order you've created them. It selects box1 first and box2 afterwards. It does not go by the order you've placed them in. You will have to place them in the order you've created them.

Yeah i know, just thought that there were a way to do change it, maybe it can be a new feature in the next build?

I agree, you can set the tab order using the dialog box, why not the edit box? Didn't TGF allow this?

I think we should have a "tab order" in the object properties toolbar where we can put a number to indicate the order.

Yeah, good idea!

You can already change the tab order of the objects on the playfield (even if I agree a better system is needed). Just right click the object and select one of the options in the Order sub-menu.
