It came to my attention that you are able to change the tab order of for example form input fields by rearranging them in the layers panel. Very handy however I need to arrange the layers backwards in order to get the correct tab order.
For example to get a correct tab order for a login form, I need to arrange the layers as such:
submit button
|
password field
|
Email Button
I fail to see that this is an intentional feature so by making this post I would like to bring this to the attention of the developers.
Yes this is the intended behavior.
The layer order has 2 functions:
The front to back order where the top is in front, this is what basically makes it a “Layers” panel.
The DOM order where the bottom is first in tab index.
Regarding sections, each time you add a section it adds in the front so a good practice will be after everything is visually arranged the way you want it to be go from the first section to the last and select arrange->bring to front. That way when you get to the last section they will be ordered correctly.
