tab order between two widgets
Message 1 in thread
I have a custom password dialog widget that contains two line edits
( username,password ) a checkbox to save the password, and two buttons
( OK, Cancel ).
How can I set the tab ordering to just toggle between the two line edits
and the checkbox, and not include the buttons? I tried setTabOrder in
the following manner without success:
setTabOrder( line1, line2 );
setTabOrder( line2, checkbox );
setTabOrder( checkbox, line1 );

Not sure but try to remove the last line.
from the docs of setTabOrder ( as of Qt3.0.0.beta6 ) :
<snip>
Note that since the tab order of the second widget is changed, you should
order a chain like this:
setTabOrder( a, b ); // a to b
setTabOrder( b, c ); // a to b to c
setTabOrder( c, d ); // a to b to c to d

you could try setFocusPolicy(NoFocus) on your buttons.
