Hello!

This probably a simple fix BUT:

I would like for the tab key to also include going to date fields or any other ( ie: Expiration).

So far it hops right over the Expiration and keeps going.

Any way to fix that?

Thanks

I’m not sure it’s a simple fix since the date entry isn’t currently seen as a “typeable” entry. I think the tab key means to only navigate to typeable components, hence unless they change it to a typeable entry (i.e a MM/DD/YYYY format then it might be switchable.

But then, it’ll have to work with different date formats across the world. I don’t think that’s an easy build.
