[SOLVED] Tab Traversal

Post by Slyde »

This may seem like a nonsensical question, but I need to know if adding a panel to a frame, then all your widgets to that panel, is a rule that you have to follow? I ask because this video shows tab traversal not working as he tries to tab from one text box to the other @ 0:14 seconds in. He says those TextCtrls have to be on a panel before you can tab traverse them. However, without a panel added to my frame, I'm able to tab traverse.

Even though I can tab traverse without adding a panel, shld I add one to lay out my widgets? Is doing so a best practice?
