Description Rich Burridge 2005-12-15 16:57:43 UTC 
Evolution 2.4.1, GNOME 2.12, Solaris x86

Start evolution with the calendar view. Tab to the time view.
Use the arrow keys to select a time, Esc to put that appointment
into text-entry mode, then type Control-O to bring up the Calendar
Appointment dialog.

At this point use can Tab or Control-Tab around various components, 
but there seems to be no way to get focus to various components in the
"Date and Time" area.

When the focus is in the description area, press "ctrl + tab" can move the focus to  "All day event" checkbox. And then press "tab", the focus is moved to "start time".
Comment 2 Rich Burridge 2005-12-20 15:22:36 UTC 
So it does. Thanks.

That seems unintuitive to me. Visually you are going backwards when 
you go from the "All day event" checkbox to the "Start Time". I'd 
like to see this adjusted so that when you Ctrl-Tab out of the 
Description, it goes to "Start Time", then you can continue to Tab 
to the rest of the fields in that row.

The event page of Evolution 2.6 has been changed, there is no this problem now. Is it still necessary to fix this bug?
Comment 4 Rich Burridge 2005-12-22 10:05:04 UTC 
If the Tabbing order for the components on the Calendar Appointment
dialog for Evolution 2.6 now follows a logical up->down, left->right
order, then there is no longer a bug. If that's what you are saying, 
then please feel free to close this bug. I unfortunately don't have
Evolution 2.6 handy to test if this is true.

It works fine with evolution-2.6.
