Control "TAB" navigation

[rajesh_paruchuru]

Hello,

We are looking for a workaround to control the navigation of "TAB" key over different fields in WDA, for ex, the standard framework seems to identify fields defined as output only and automatically skip the TAB navigation over them, we want to enforce similar behaviour over a bunch of fields of our choice( as described here [Accomplishment of Tab and Auto-Tab in BSP: Part-I|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/5761] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]; in a BSP application) and not just the fields that are controlled by the framework. Any insights/work arounds however complex(read 'dirty') they might be are welcome.

Hi,

As there is not automatic tab siwtching among UI elements in WDA.

Can you try to check with these methods in IF_WD_VIEW_CONTROLLER_{REQUEST_FOCUS or IF_WD_VIEW_CONTROLLER}REQUEST_FOCUS_ON_ACTION or REQUEST_FOCUS_ON_VIEW_ELEM of IF_WD_VIEW as a work around.

There is also a method called FOCUS in CL_WD_INPUT_FIELD. Please test them out.

Regards,

Lekha.

Many thanks for your suggestions, just thinking, if there could be any possibility of executing the methods suggested without triggering a server side event.
