Usage

.tabIndex
Description
Property; lets you customize the tab ordering of objects in a movie. The tabIndex
property is undefined
by default. You can set tabIndex
on a button, movie clip, or text field instance.
If an object in a Flash movie contains a tabIndex
property, automatic tab ordering is disabled, and the tab ordering is calculated from the tabIndex
properties of objects in the movie. The custom tabordering only includes objects that have tabIndex
properties.
The tabIndex
property must be a positive integer. The objects are ordered according to their tabIndex
properties, in ascending order. An object with a tabIndex
of 1
precedes an object with a tabIndex
of 2
. The custom tab ordering disregards the hierarchical relationships of objects in a Flash movie. All objects in the Flash movie with tabIndex
properties are placed in the tab order. You shouldn't use the same tabIndex
value for multiple objects.
