When I press the right arrow key, it should jump to the next element, as possible with the navigation on the touch display. Only here it should work with the arrow keys. Is there a possibility?

    Hi @Andreas111 ,

    You can control this with the TabIndex property. The tab moves about the form or screen in the order this is set for the control. Within a form or screen, it will move in the order this is set.

    Thanks a lot! It works.

    But how can i switch the pages in the gallery with only one click on the arrow keys. From Page 1 to Page 2.

    Now it only swipes a bit and a I have to press the key arrows some times (~6 times) to get to the other acreen. It like swiping with the finger. The picture is how it looks like when i click on the arrow keys 4 times.

    Hi @Andreas111 ,

    Sorry for the late response - if you tag me in responses, they are much easier to see in my feed.

    Sorry, there is no other solution I know that utilises the arrow keys
