I have a radio button group with 2 radio buttons. When I tab through the widgets on the screen, 1st radio button gets focus. When I tab again, the next radio button in the group doesn't get focus. Instead focus is now on the widget located after the 2nd radio button. Just checking if this is the way it is supposed to work OR when tab is pressed on the 1st radio button should focus go to the next RB.
Thanks.

Re: Tab sequence of Radio Buttons in same group
The tab sequence of widgets on the screen is controlled by the order of the elements in your 'elements' tab in the upper-right corner of the visual designer.
If you click on that tab, there's an "auto arrange" button you can use to sort the elements by their screen positions. You can also move the tab sequence of a particular element by clicking on it and using the up/down arrows to move it up or down in the tab sequence.

I used the "auto arrange" option and it still doesn't set focus on the 2nd radio button.

I don't think that unselected radio buttons get "tabbed" to, only the radio button "group". Once the group has the focus, the arrow keys can be used to change the selected radio button.
(At least this is the behavior that I have experienced)

The behavior I am seeing is that the 1st radio button whether selected or unselected gets focus. I can then use the up/down arrows to stay within that RB group.
