Navigating entry form with the tab key

Post by kninpeaks »

When I add a new contact and fill the first field and then press tab, hoping that it would move the cursor to the next field, the focus jumps backwards to the field name drop down button, then on the next press on the X right of the field, and only on the third press it moves to the surname field.
Is there hope for this old keyboard junkie?

Without repro, I remember I had that topic last year, and got answer from support, that this is by design. However, not quite sure, the fields were the same row, as described

Sure, there's always hope for anyone :) If more users support kninpeaks's suggestion, we'll change the default behavior.
