I've got a window with three combo-boxes and an NSTableView. The window's first responder is set to the first combo-box, and each combo-box has it's nextKeyView set to the next box. The last box's nextKeyView is set to the NSTableView, and it points to the first box. A nice big loop, just as you would expect.

However, pressing tab only cycles between the combo-boxes. The NSTableView never highlights. If I click a row in the table view and press Tab, it cycles back to the combo-boxes as expected, but subsequent tabbing never makes the table view key again.

I just had a play with one of my windows that has a browser and a table view in a tab view. The browser's nextKeyView is set to the table in IB. When I hit <tab> I can see the browser lose the focus, but the table shows no sign that it's received it ... until I press the down arrow key! Then a row highlights.


Does anyone know if, after tabbing into a table, you can get a table cell into edit mode using just the keyboard? I hate having to resort to the mouse just to start editing.
