Unhelpful/wrong behaviour when using the Crop tool

[DarienGS]

In Affinity Photo 2, when entering a custom Crop ratio, you should be able to press Tab to move from the X value to the Y value field. Currently hitting Tab in the X field makes the focus vanish altogether. I think this must be a bug, as other sets of fields (e.g. in the Transform pane) interpret Tab as expected.

I'm using macOS 13.3.1; I've tried both the latest full release and the latest Beta and the behaviour is the same on both.

While I'm here, may I note that when the user selects "Mode: Custom ratio", it's very likely that the next thing they're going to want to do is specify the ratio. So perhaps choosing that menu option should automatically put the text cusor in the X field, or at least make it available via Tab?

Hi @DarienGS welcome to the forums,

I would agree that this is a bug, particularly since this works as expected on Windows when tabbing between the crop dimension boxes, I've now logged it with the developers.
