Problems with using tab -button in application

Hi all,
I'm working on a game, using AS 3.0 and would like to use TAB -key in the game to do certain in-game actions. With Firefox, Chrome and Safari it works without problems and focus stays in the app. With IE8 It also works fine on some cases but for example on my friend's machine, with IE8, it switches the focus from the app to address bar and other components. We both have up-to-date flash players. I've tried to search the net for solution without great results. Is there solutions for fixing this issue in or outside AS3.0 (like using javascript?) or any ideas what's the root of the problem?
Thanks,
Mike

I Too am having problems with iBooks highlighting the entire chapter if I touch the right edge of a page. It overrides my previous highlighting making my studying useles. It's terribly frustrating! iOS 8 has been a big,big problem. Apple has to fix this. There should be a way to undo it. It's a terrible mess.

TextFields and using tab button

i'm working on a program that calculates my hours from work and addst them up for me... my prob is that i set up array of text fields for starthour, startminute, am/pm and then endhour, endminute, am/pm... the textfields are placed vertically so each line is
starthour startminute am/pm endhour endminute am/pm
but because i did it in gridlayout vertically and not horizontally when i layed it out when u try to use the tab key to switch the box ur in it goes down instead of across... is there a way i can fix that without redoing my hole layout set up... here is some code:
GridLayout layout = new GridLayout(1, 10, 5, 5); //1 row 10 column
          this.setLayout(layout);
          GridLayout grid = new GridLayout(3, 1, 5, 5); // row 1 column
          //setup column0 -- numberLabel
          column0.setLayout(grid);
          for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
               numbers[i] = new Label(i + ": ");
               column0.add(numbers);
          this.add(column0);
          //setup column1 -- startHour
          column1.setLayout(grid);
          for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
               startHour[i] = new TextField(); //creates new TextField object
               column1.add(startHour[i]); //adds the 6 text boxes next to numbers
               startHour[i].addTextListener(this);
          this.add(column1);
          //setup column2 -- startMinutes
          column2.setLayout(grid);
          for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
               startMinutes[i] = new TextField();
               column2.add(startMinutes[i]);
               startMinutes[i].addTextListener(this);
          this.add(column2);
          //setup column3 -- startNightOrDay
          column3.setLayout(grid);
          for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
               startNightOrDay[i] = new TextField();
               column3.add(startNightOrDay[i]);
               startNightOrDay[i].addTextListener(this);
          this.add(column3);

How to Use the Focus Subsystem

Using TAB Button

Picture:
http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/3994/tabsg0.png
I created a page with two columns of input text fields. But
it's not working exactly how I want it to. When the user fills in a
line data in the first (white) column and presses TAB, it jumps to
the second (yellow) column. My intention is to have the user fill
in the first column completely, then have it jump up to the second
column. Does anyone know how to do this?

The information that is going to be put into these textboxes
does not have a set value of characters. So moving to the next
textbox after X characters are typed would not work.
I'm not looking for it to auto-move to the next box after
some information is put in. All I'm trying to do it make it so when
the user presses the TAB key on their keyboard it takes them to the
textbox below. Then after the user completes the last textbox of
the first column (and presses TAB), I want it to send them to the
top of the second column.

Hi, minhaz784221. To clarify, are you looking for the tab button function on your phone's keyboard to use in the Quickoffice app? If yes, you'll need to press the space bar multiple times to create an indent on your paragraphs. If this does not resolve your inquiry, feel free to add more details in your reply. Keep us posted.

How do I restore the "close tab" button to the END of the tab bar, WITHOUT USING AN ADDON

Up until FF31, I used to have the following setting configured which moved the little 'X' button that closed tabs off of the tabs themselvs and onto the far right of the tab bar.
browser.tabs.closeButtons; User Set; Integer; 3
No, this no longer works. It has still moved the close buttons back to the tab buttons. Until I can figure out how to fix this, I will be moving back to a previous version. I can't for the life of me see why this feature was removed, other than Mozilla's seemingly arrogant insistence that it knows what people want better than they do.
I was since told by someone that I can use an addon to fix it, yet the problem is THEY DO NOT WORK. The addons that supposedly solve this all have intermittent failures where they don't load correctly, leave random dead tabs open, and in one case it even seemed to open new tabs when I tried to close one.
It's absolutely inexcusable that the dev team is so arrogant to take away a feature that has fundamentally no impact on the rest of the browser, other than, as I said before, they THINK they know what we want better than we do. It's no small wonder that FF is losing market share. The only thing keeping me on board was really this function, as I prefer this layout, and if it's gone, I see no reason to stick with FF over others.

unfortunately it is not possible to restore the close button to have only one (customizable) close button on the Tab bar without using an extension.
The extension is necessary because you need to create a new toolbar button and bind the proper code to it to make the button act as a tab close button (command: BrowserCloseTabOrWindow()).

How can I set firefox to stack my tabs one after the other so that I do not have to move through tabs using the buttons at the ends

when I open multiple tabs which do not fit the tab strip I have to move through tabs using scroll buttons. is there any way way I can stack the tabs on each other or suggest me a add-on which can help me achieve this

You can consider to access the tabs via the list all tabs button.
You see the "List All Tabs" button in current Firefox versions if there are that many tabs open that you get the Tab bar scroll buttons appearing.
* Permanent List-all-tabs Button: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/permanent-listalltabs/
The Custom Tab Width extension adds CSS rules to adjust the tab width settings as set by the browser.tabs.tabMinWidth and browser.tabs.tabMaxWidth prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
* Custom Tab Width: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/custom-tab-width/
You can achieve the same with code in userChrome.css.
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.

Can the "ADD-A-NEW-TAB" button be reconfigured to be adjacent to existing tabs (like it used to be)? I am a left-handed tablet user who finds it's position on the far right side of screen very inconvenient.

In previous version of Firefox, the "add-a-new-tab" button has been located to the right of any existing tabs. In the latest version it's been moved to the far right of the screen. In tablet mode, this is too far to reach conveniently for a left-hander. I cannot find any controls to re-configure it to the way it used to be and I can't "drag" it to where I want it. Is there a way to relocate it?

Thanks. I don't know why it wouldn't just go back there when I tried putting it back? I didn't change anything, so I assumed the new "default" was over on the left. Glad it was a simple solution after all.

How to change gtk theme dialog box button appearance when using tab?

Hi,
I'm using candido as my gtk theme and have noticed that when a dialog box pops up (Yes / No), it is extremely difficult to tell which option is highlighted. How do I change this appearance? I searched through the gtkrc and even used gimp to manipulate the images used via trial and error to see if I found one that worked. Can someone familiar with gtk themes tell me which gtkrc or image to alter to affect this appearance?
I use tab to select my option a ton and hate not being able to tell what I'm looking at.
For reference,
- here is the current look (can you tell which one is highlighted? It's "Cancel" -- just slightly bigger or a fine line around it) LINK
- here is the gtkrc if that helps? LINK
For one more point of clarification, I'm not talking about the button appearance on mouseover. I have identified that the button-prelight.png file changes that. I specifically am talking purely about a dialog popping up and then using the tab key alone to highlight through the options. I really like this theme, but this one thing drives me crazy. This appearance changes when I select different themes with lxappearance, so I've narrowed it down to being a gtk-theme issue, not my openbox theme or icon set.
Many thanks!

HI,
Debug the program after you press the CANCEL button , you will get where the conrol is flowing , And instead of using
Leave to screen '910' use Leave to screen 0.

Open tabs are not on tab strip. Have to click on List All Tabs button to find tabs. Tabs used to display on tab strip and stopped doing this. Suggestions?

Been using Firefox for years, running Windows XP. This morning when I opened pages in another tab, did not see them on tab strip. Only way to find them is to click on List All Tabs Button and it shows list. Cannot get them to display on tab strip. If I open in another window, it works, like it should. If I click on plus sign on tab strip it opens another tab, but can't see the previous ones except with List All Tabs Button. Any suggestions on how to turn tab strip back on? Thanks, jayem33

If it works in a new window then you can drags tabs from the not working window to that new window.
You can also try to close the tabs via Ctrl+W and restore the closed tabs via Shift+Ctrl+T

"Add New Tab" button does not exist in the Window -Customize Toolbar, and not on my Navigator toolbar. Where can I find one to put on my Navigator toolbar, please?

I see "Add New Window" but..."Add New Tab" button does not exist in the Window -Customize Toolbar any longer, and not on my Navigator toolbar. Where can I find one to put on my Navigator toolbar, please?
Thanks

It's the "+" on the Tab bar. You can move it to the Navigation Toolbar if you prefer. When you start Customize, the + moves to the far right end of the Tab bar. You can drag it where you want (see attached image).
Any luck?

I got a requirement from my client. He wants to use the Tab key functionality on the dashboard for the different command buttons. I have used command button for process, export and print report. I am not able to set the Tab key property on these command buttons. Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance.

Use the Tab-order property of IR object.
In design mode, select the any command button, right click and select the property. you will find the window for "Tab-Order". It lists all the objects available in that dashboard. Here you can arrange the tab order..
Hope it will help you.

Used to have a little "OPEN NEW TAB" button to the right of the current tab. Since my upgrade to 6.0.1. this is gone. How can I get it back?

Used to have a little "OPEN NEW TAB" button to the right of the current open tab. Since my upgrade to 6.0.1. this is gone. How can I get it back?

Thanks for the reply. My button was after the last tab until I upgraded. What I did was restore to default tool bar and the button was there. I then re customized my tool bar the way it was.
Thanks again for the help.
