How do you control the order of the fields in which auto-nav follows?


Forum|alt.badge.img

I have an issue where we want the recipient to auto-nav (which is set in Admin) to all fields but the navigation is not in order of the placement of fields. In other words, if I have 6 checkboxes on 2 lines, the navigation does not follow the line order. It may go to the 2nd checknox on the 2nd line and then go to the 3rd checkbox on forst line, etc.

How do I set the order in which the checkboxes are navigated?

This has been resolved. Apparently, "It is a tab related setting on our back end." DocuSign tech had to set some setting on the backend. The case is resolved. Case#11929174 - Checkbox tabOrder not working

 thank you for your response. I have found the taborder property in the API reference. I believe this will resolve the issue; I am testing now.

Hi, this is a snippet of the checkboxes XML:

<checkbox>

<documentId>1</documentId>

<recipientId>3</recipientId>

<anchorIgnoreIfNotPresent>True</anchorIgnoreIfNotPresent>

<tabLabel>GndrID1</tabLabel>

<name>chkGndrID1</name>

<anchorString>chkGndrID1</anchorString>

<anchorUnits>pixels</anchorUnits>

<anchorXOffset>-16.7</anchorXOffset>

<anchorYOffset>-3</anchorYOffset>

<optional>True</optional>

<selected>False</selected>

<tabOrder>9</tabOrder>

<conditionalParentLabel>GndrID5</conditionalParentLabel>

<conditionalParentValue>off</conditionalParentValue>

</checkbox>

Also, I have opened a ticket with API support.
