Description Thomas Baumgart 2025-09-27 11:11:16 UTC 
SUMMARY
In 5.1 it was very convenient, at least for me, to jump through all editable fields with tabulator key. This was including jumping over day, month and year in the date field. In the new editor this is no longer possible, arrow keys can be used here.

Can this behaviour somewhere be modified to get back the jumping with one single key (tab)?

(Copied from https://discuss.kde.org/t/5-2-1-jumping-through-date-fields-while-adding-new-transaction/39675)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Edit a transaction, set the focus to the date widget, select the left-most part (e.g. day)
2. Press the TAB key

OBSERVED RESULT
Keyboard focus jumps to the next widget (amout)

EXPECTED RESULT
Next part of date (e.g. month) is selected

ADDITIONAL NOTE
This is the opposite of the behavior described in bug #240107.
