tab key different on two different Ubuntu distros

wxPython Users
1

I recently copied a program to a different Ubuntu distro (Xubuntu 14.04). The
program was developed on a Ubuntu 14.10
system but does not allow the tab key to transit from text box to text box.
But, strange, the tab key works when I installed
the program to the Xubuntu PC. On this recent install (by copying it), the
tab key does advance through the text box objects.
I can not understand why it is different between the two OS. other than the
tab key issue, both programs work identical.
Actually, it would be nice if the tab key also worked on the original PC.
Any ideas or comments.

Never got a response, but when I upgraded from 14.10 to 15.04 the problem
disappeared. Don't know if this helps anyone or not.

Please see this thread on this list
<http://wxpython-users.1045709.n5.nabble.com/TAB-TRAVERSAL-doesn-t-work-td5724892.html&gt;

And that on stackexchange
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33189159/tab-traversal-doesnt-work-in-a-wxphoenix-dialog&gt;

And the bug-report about that
<wxTrac has been migrated to GitHub Issues - wxWidgets;

I currently have no solution.
