OK, today's kindergarten question, to which I think I knew the answer
once upon a time (but then, i thought that I used to use "send some
message to every field in this card" . . .).

I want to be able to leave a field and focus to the next field, just
as if tab were hit, from within a script.  I've tried sending tab as a
message to the field, and sending it to the card with a tick delay.

Surely this is easy . . .



I have just made a merry little stack with 3 fields all in a row.

And a button containing this script:

on mouseUp
  put the id of the focusedObject into fOB
  put (fOB + 1) into fOB
  focus on fld id fOB
on mouseUp

and, oddly enough, it shifts the focus down the line of fields, one per click.

Have a lovely weekend.  Richmond.
