OK, so it’s been about a month since I installed Leopard, and there are a few things that have been bugging me. One which is a constant source of frustration for me (since I’m really a keyboard guy at heart) is the fact that by default, OS X won’t allow you to “tab” your way through all the controls of a form.
So now I found by way of a bit of surfing (I started with this post from Knightwise) a page on LifeHacker describing just how to accomplish this magical feat. Truth be told, I did this last year before the Leopard install, but couldn’t remember how I did it. This post is as much for me (for the next time I have a fresh OS X install) as for the community at large.
- Open System Preferences (Apple Menu –> System Preferences)
- Click on Keyboard and Mouse
- Click on the All Controls radio button at the bottom of the form
Thank God we’ve got that little mess sorted out.
