You mean "NSTextField", not "NSEditText", right?

Are you doing any validation in your fields? Perhaps the last field isn't validating...

If that's not it, programmatically traverse the keyboard loop using NSView's nextKeyView method to prove that something isn't changing the loop out from under you. If that looks good, traverse it again, this time using NSView's nextValidKeyView method to check that something isn't changing your first field's willingness to become first responder.

No dice - I reset the keyboard loop and then reset all the connections. All 4 of them are identical - I can go forward through all the field but when the focus reaches the last of the four fields it stops there and won't return to the first one on the next tab press.

I have an NSView in a window with 4 NSEditText fields. All 4 of the text fields are connected via their nextKeyView outlets. I want the user to be able to hit the Tab key and have the focus cycle continuously through all of the text fields in order.

The first three of these work - when I press Tab the cursor advances to the next text field and it gets the focus. The last of the 4 fields however doesn't work - when it has focus and I press Tab nothing happens - even though the connection is there and I control-dragged the connection back to the first text field in Interface Builder. All 4 of the edit text fields have the same connection settings so I don't see why it shouldn't work.

Maybe something went bad in the nib. Try clearing the key loop in IB (Layout | Keyboard Navigation | Clear Keyboard Loop). Then rewire your nextKeyView outlets and see if all is then well.
