What is the event fired when pressing the Tab key on different buttons?

Jul 04, 2018

Dear Heroes;

What is the event fired when pressing the Tab key on different buttons?

I have some buttons on a page that I need to make different action when pressing Tab key on each button.

Thanks

Hi there Ahmed, 

Thank you for posting your question here in the community. 

I am not sure I am clear on exactly what you want to achieve with the TAB button. However, here's a few things that may help.. if you're looking to control the Tab Order (the order in which items are highlighted in yellow when you hit the Tab button on a slide), you can do so by following these instructions: 

Storyline 360: How to Customize the Tab Order 

If you're looking to set up a trigger that will make something happen when you click the Tab button, that can be done as well. Here's an example of a trigger that makes Storyline jump to the next slide when the tab key is pressed on the keyboard:

Hope this helps!

Thanks for your reply but this is not exactly what I want to do

I need to do the following:

Assume we have a slide contains 3 buttons

When I click first tab the first button is selected and if I clicked Enter, action will be jump to slide01

When I click tab twice, the second button is selected and if I clicked Enter, action will be jump to slide02

When I click tab for the third time, the third button is selected and if I clicked Enter, action will be jump to slide03
