I tested copying the knob to each later. That worked just as it should. However, that is a really unacceptable design for accessibility. The learner would have to cycle through every single object every single time he/she wanted to click the button. So it would look like:
tab, tab, tab, tab (focus on knob now), enter (shows layer 1)
tab, tab, tab, tab (focus on knob now), enter (shows layer 2)
tab, tab, tab, tab (focus on knob now), enter (shows layer 3) etc.
The original design was more elegant:
tab, tab, tab, tab (focus on knob now), enter (shows layer 1)
enter (layer 2)
enter (layer 3)
So... if anyone has a solution that doesn't require multiple knobs, that would be wunderbar.
