Combo does not have a tab stop

[Ben]

I am successfully using the sfComboBox control in my .NET MAUI app.

However when I tab through the controls on the page, all the sfComboBox controls are skipped - they aren't part of the tab sequence.

I have looked for a TabStop (or Tab{anything}) property, and tried casting to an Input to access the same, but no luck. Is it possible to add the control to the tab order?

All the sfComboBox controls are editable and visible.

Hi Ben,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

The tab order support in .NET MAUI is limited by the platform itself. The .NET MAUI framework does not provide built-in support for setting or managing tab order across controls, including Syncfusion’s SfComboBox. Once the .NET MAUI framework introduces this feature for the `tab order `, we will incorporate it into the SfCombobox.

For more information you can refer this: https://github.com/dotnet/maui/issues/16218

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Regards,

The tab ordering is less important. What is important is that the controls get the focus as the user tabs through the page. Every other control (ie. all native controls) get focus, but the xfComboBox does not. Is it possible to make this happen?
