I would like to use a key other than "tab" to advance to the next
text field, so that users can use a numeric keypad to enter
something like "11-22-33" and have 11, 22 and 33 end up in
different text fields.
I'd suggest not using a different key from 'Tab', since that's very
much hardwired into every Mac user.
I don't want to replace it, just duplicate it's functionality for the
'-' key. Reason being that there is no tab key on a numeric keypad.
Alternative, why not just detect when the field has the required
number of characters and move to the next field automatically? For
numeric entry this is much more user-friendly.
The number of digits in the field is variable.
Thanks
