Description Jesse Glick 2002-04-16 17:53:23 UTC 
Observed on JDK 1.4 on Linux in MDI mode. If your
Explorer window is narrow enough that more than
one row of tabs appears in the property sheet, you
cannot get to the second row using the keyboard.
You can TAB until the first property tab is
selected, but then arrow keys cycle only within
the tabs in that row. They will not continue on to
the next row. For that you must use the mouse. See
screenshot - at this point pressing the right
arrow key moves back to Properties, not Capabilities.

Jesse, I think that this is JDK issue ( or as design) , if you try the
same on JTabbedPane outside NetBeans you can see the same behaviour. 

IMHO : you can select appropriate tab (in second row) with Up/Down
arrows.
Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2002-04-16 19:12:17 UTC 
Oh, up/down does work. For some reason I thought these did not work,
but they do. Thanks.
