Hello! I'm noticing that on Ubuntu 9.10 with wxPython
2.8.10.1-0ubuntu1 I can tab into a DatePickerCtrl (Generic as is the
case on GTK), but not tab out of, either forward or backward. I've
pasted a minimal sample to demonstrate this at http://python.pastebin.com/fe7c1621;
you'll notice you can
tab into it from the second control and shift+tab back from the
fourth, but there is no way to get out of it it appears!
This seems to be a bit of a usability impediment and I was wondering
if anyone had any tips to resolve it. I tried binding to
wx.EVT_KEY_DOWN (I'm already doing that to allow the up and down
arrows to go up or down by one day), but it that event doesn't seem to
be triggered on a tab. I also tried wx.EVT_NAVIGATION_KEY, but no
luck. I also tried using Move[After/Before]InTabOrder to make sure
things were as expected but again no luck.
Apparently on OSX tabs work as expected, so perhaps it is a bug in a
GenericDatePickerCtrl?
Thanks so much for any assistance! (and a CC on the reply would be
greatly appreciated as well
