Arguments: standard-object
Returns or sets with setf the value of the tabstop property of the
argument. The value of this property can be true or nil
. When a dialog is selected, pressing the TAB key
can move focus from one control on the dialog to another. If the value
of this property is true, pressing TAB will eventually move focus to
this control. If the value is nil
, this
control will be skipped over by the TAB key. See
tab-positiontab-position which determines how many times TAB must be
pressed after the dialog first appears before this control is reached
(assuming tabstop is true).
multi-line-editable-text and tabstop
If a multi-line-editable-text
control
has the focus and the user presses the TAB key, then, if the component
has the tabstop property turned on, the effect is to move the focus to
the next component in the tab order. If tabstop is off (or if the
component is just a text-edit-pane window rather than a
multi-line-editable-text
dialog-item), then a tab character is
inserted into the text. When the tabstop property is on, Shift-Tab
inserts a tab character.
