Tab control doesn't highlight when tabbing

[Jim from DME]

I have to navigate through my application without a mouse, using the tab key, return key, etc. As I tab through the controls I've noticed that as a control receives focus it is outlined with a black box. This doesn't seem to be true, however, for the tab control. Is there someway I can get the tab control to be highlighted when it receives focus via the tab key?

There are ways you can do it by using attribute nodes. You can monitor the tab controls attribute node to see if it is in focus, then change color, size, or display the page, etc. Here is an example.

Hi Eh,

Nice workaround. In case if viewing the pages is necessary all the time, then you can certainly use any other property like changing the color.
