Hi All,
Some expert coorperate users want to have a lot of fields on a form so they can input large amounts of data at once, in a specific flow. They like to use the Tabkey to put focus on a field. Should all fields using tabfocus events, or only the most used input pattern? What is the best practice?
Example:
Imagine you have to design usability for one form with the fields: A,B,C,D,E,F,G
The average input pattern would be A,B,D,F.
Should I have a tab order like this
[TabIndex, field]
1. A
2. B
3. C
4. D
5. E
6. F
7. G
or like this
[TabIndex, field]
1. A
2. B
3. D
4. F
other fields don't respond to the tabfocus event.
Cheers,
Simon
