Hi,
thank you, I have 3 objects in my window. A NSTextFiels, a NSTableView, and
a subclass of NSView I create programmatically.

I tried to do what you suggested with the NSTableView

[aTextField setNextKeyView:aTableView];

but it didn't work. Also, earlier, in Interface Builder, I tried to make a
"nextKeyView" connection between aTextField and myTableView. But it didn't
work as well.

Please note, even without this call, if I click on a row of aTableView, then
I press the TAB key, the selection goes to aTextField. Fine. But if now I
press again the TAB key, the selection doesn't go to aTableView.

I tried more to add this to MYTableView subclass, unsuccessfully.
- (BOOL)acceptsFirstResponder { return YES; }

Any idea?


Best Regards

Now, since there is a NSTextField in my Window too, I would like to
select
my object typing the TAB key. So any time I type the TAB key, the
selection
switches from the NSTextField to myObject, then to the NSTextField
again.
Do you know ho to get this work?

Try NSView's

setNextKeyView:

- (void)setNextKeyView:(NSView *)aView

Inserts aView after the receiver in the key view loop of the receiver's
NSWindow.
