TdxLayoutItemOptions.AutoControlTabOrders Property

Specifies whether to automatically manage the tab order of controls within the layout control.

Declaration

property AutoControlTabOrders: Boolean read; write; default True;

Property Value

Type Default
Boolean True

Remarks

Tab order is the order in which child windows are navigated when pressing the Tab key. A control, whose TabOrder value equals 0, represents a control that has focus when a form is initially created. Initially, the tab order is set in the order the controls were added to the form. The first item added to the form has a TabOrder value equal to 0, the second 1, the third 2, etc. (these items must be connected with windowed controls).

Set the AutoControlTabOrders property to True to automatically change the layout control’s item tab order regardless of the order in which items were placed into the layout control. The new tab order takes into account item position within a group and group position within its parent.

The default value of the AutoControlTabOrders property is True.
