The designer trick seems not to work in the new beta

It seems to work fine here. Can you upload a small example where the tab order doesn't work properly?

OK, here is the full sourcecode for a sightmark estimation program. Needs RichTextBox.dll

If you "send to back" the textboxes you can alter the order, but if you try to move from the textboxes to the checkboxes on the panels then you can't alter the flow.

I'll have to admit that the textbox alone trial was only done after you said that all was working - prior to that I was simply getting erratic order by trying to hop from textboxes to checkboxes & back & not getting the result I expected.

You can arrange the TabIndex order and TabStops to your convenience with the Door library.
Attached an example.

Best regards.

You can also do it with 'Send to back'. Just make sure to set the panels instead of their inner checkboxes.

I think I need to be a better tester rather than a beta tester. ;(
