Tab among fields

[RyanAPetersen]

Hi Sugar Community,

This software has been a life-saver for my start-up - a customizable, extensive CRM system has been essential to getting us off the ground.

Apache 2, Ubuntu 8.04 Operating System.

Sugar CRM Community 5.2.0.d

In the studio interface, for my leads - edit page - layout, I want to customize the order in which a user can tab to enter information, just so it's possible for the user to input lead information strictly by utilizing the keyboard.

Can anyone point me to the path to do this?

Thanks!

Ryan

open the layout of your edit view in Studio, go to one particular field and click the pencil symbol. You have to repeat this for all visible fields there.

Hi Ryan,

you can do this within Studio. You need to click the edit button for each field in the edit view, and then there is a field called 'Tab Order' that you can populate. This is a bit tedious, since you would need to do this for each individual field. You can also do this in the code in custom/modules/Leads/metadata/editviewdefs.php. You would need to add the following within each field array:

 'tabindex' => '1', 
  

you can change the tabindex number in the order your wish
