Daniel Gibert Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 This is a general issue on the three apps from Affinity, maybe not a bug but a "not a feature" but is a nasty issue. When you change a setting in a pane, on most cases, you can't use tab key to go to next field. Yes, it works good on the color mixer, but don't work in almost any other panel. You change a field, and the next tab is interpreted as a regular tab instead of going to the next field. That means than most of the time I end with the studios hidden because tab hide it instead of going to next field. Is the only set of apps I know that doesn't let you navigate fields using tab key and forcing to make a click in each field that you need to modify. I don't know why, because the color mixer works well, so it is clear that is feasible feature. Only other exception is in dialogs, that works because you are on a window and can't go anywhere until you close it.

MickRose Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Works okay in the Transform panel on Windows but I agree it would be good to be able to tab in the text formatting panels. Maybe ctrl tab could be made to say in the panel. Quote Windows 10 Pro, I5 3.3G PC 16G RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted September 20, 2018 Staff Share Posted September 20, 2018 Hi Daniel Gibert, and all, Sorry the delay getting back to you. This is indeed something that could be more consistent/improved but it's not exactly a bug and affects all the suite, not just Publisher. I'm moving it to the Suggestions for Affinity Range ( current & future ) since this section is just for reporting Publisher bugs. We may have this already logged as an improvement, I remember this issue was brought up a few times here in the forums. I'm checking this out and will fill an improvement request in case I don't find one. Thank you all for your feedback.

Mr. Doodlezz Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Hey @MEB, so what‘s the status on this? It’s been a couple of years … 🤔 Cheers Dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Surely this is not impossible to fix/implement, I grant you it is probably very boring work to go through every panel's input fields and fix them but Please do it. Tab. Go from field to field. Return/Enter. Accept the entry and exit the field. Escape. Do not accept the entry, just exit the field.
