Custom Tab order - Whence the M with green bg?

Avatar

Level 3

This stops me from being able to arrange the tabs properly. There is no reason that I can see that causes this to happen, yet it does, and unexpectedly.

The screenshot below shows tabs along the right side of my form, page 2. How did 12 become fixed? It is not part of the Master page. I can't make this work. NOTHING addresses it, no books or documents, and I haven't found an answer on the forums. I can't do Automatic tab order for other reasons. Anyone have this problem? Any solutions? I'm pulling my hair out with 2 forms doing the same thing.  Thanks!

Hi Maria,

Green circles are normally shown for tabing order of Master page objects. The blue rectangles for objects on the design pages.

If the object is not on the Master page, then I would be inclined to delete it and drag on a new object onto the design page. You may need to replace any existing script, formatting etc.

Hi Niall!

Thanks!

I was afraid of that. We had 10 forms which were distributed to 3 different

people. The Owner, for whom we were making the forms, wants them all to have

exactly the same functionally and look, which is tricky when 3 people are

doing the work at the same time. I'm now responsible for all 10 of them and

am meeting via Webex in 30 minutes with the Owner.

But how do the tabs get the Green circles? It didn't start out like that. I

guess it's one of life's little mysteries, eh?

Well, I had better get busy and fix these things. I think I don't want to

use LCD for a few weeks! ha ha ha!

Hope you are doing well and seeing signs of Spring!
