Remarks

This action, when a shape has focus, moves focus to the next shape in the order they were drawn.

The default key combination assigned to this action, when the shape has focus, is the Tab key.

You can use this action along with a custom key combination by defining your own input or action map. For more information about maps, see Managing Keyboard Interactions.

Example

This example sets up a map that uses the A key to activate the next shape in the drawing order.
