Description Lynn Monsanto 2007-06-19 16:32:08 UTC 
The Orca screen reader does not receive events when an arrow key is used to move keyboard focus to the previous or next page tab. See Bug 434940 for more information.

Lynn, Just as you have said, this should be a java bug because the page tab is not shown when you move keyboard to the previous or next page tab.
Have you already filed a bug for the control panel?

I found that if jcontrol was running not in gtk look&feel, when you move keyboard focus, the page can be changed.
Comment 3 Jeff Cai 2007-06-25 11:15:10 UTC 
You can run PageTab example in SwingSet2 demo.
And you can use Shift-F10 to switch among Gtk, Java and Motif Look&Feel. then you can reproduce this problem very easily.

Just to confirm this - when running with GTK+ look and feel, no events seem to be delivered when arrowing left/right across tabs.  When using the Java look and feel, however, events seem to be delivered.  So, this might be a bug in the Java Swing GTK+ look and feel.
