I am having trouble setting the tab order in my document. I looked on this thread and implemented the following code snippet.
(doc.Form[2] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 1;
(doc.Form[3] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 2;
(doc.Form[88] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 3;
(doc.Form[90] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 4;
(doc.Form[91] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 5;
(doc.Form[92] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 6;
(doc.Form[89] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 7;
(doc.Form[1] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 8;
(doc.Form[4] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 9;
(doc.Form[5] as Field).AnnotationIndex = 10;
page.TabOrder = TabOrder.Manual;
However the tab order is not set when I review the tab order index and annotation index and then compare it to my own set index. Here Diff merge shows differences between the APIs own Tab order and annotation index. How can you accurately set the tab order while the document is being created. It should be as simple as Winforms where you set each GUI elements tab order index but it is not. Please provide example we have a paid aspose total account
The Aspose.PDF for .NET exposes a property for form fields named as TabOrder which can be used to set the tab orders during PDF generation. Would you kindly try to set that property and in case issue still persists, please share your complete sample code snippet along with generated PDF and expected output PDF documents. We will test the scenario in our environment and address it accordingly.
a direct Field.TabOrder call does not work because the tab order you set cannot go above the page number. This is why it was mentioned in this other ticket
The way that was implemented in release .NET 7.0.0
This other ticket was never solved and the user asked if aspose could create an example of code using TabOrder Manual. A small snippet is shown but does not work. Creating one that works would help and could also be used in your developer documentation
I believe the investigation ticket is PDFNET-45443
and can be used to help solve my issue as well. This ticket is around 2 years old. Thank you.
We have check the referenced thread and found that original ticket ID is PDFNET-45417 which was logged for TabOrder not being set correctly in an existing PDF using following code snippet:
Document doc = new Document(dataDir + "SampleFile.pdf");
int tabOrder = 0;
foreach (Field field in doc.Form.Fields)
{
Console.WriteLine(field.PartialName + " => Tab Order was: => " + field.TabOrder);
field.TabOrder = tabOrder++;
Console.WriteLine(field.PartialName + " => Tab Order is: => " + field.TabOrder);
}
doc.Save(dataDir + "SampleFile_out.pdf");
