[Gambas-user] TableView and Tab key

[Bruce]

Too hard!
I eschew tableview for some reasons. That is one of them.
IIRC there is something funny about pressing return at the end of a 
tableview?
Best of luck.

(We use a standard approach in this type of instance. Select a row in a 
gridview and if your user is allowed to edit it, then it shows an editor 
in a panel below the grid. IOW the grid is just a "selector" and say 
double clicking the row or any column or right clicking on a cell brings 
up a menu. Much easier to control and the user can "SEE" the intent of 
their actions.

Here's an example from our own "bugtracker"
