Inbox [WAS Quick Entry] tab goes out of order

Has anyone else run into this Inbox [WAS Quick Entry] tab order issue?

When I use the Inbox [WAS Quick Entry] window and press Tab, the field focus jumps in an unexpected order.

  • Instead of the expected flow: Task → Project → Tags → Due,
  • it’s going: Task → Tags → Project → Due

This really throws a wrench when trying to quickly capture things.

When using Quick Entry, click the eye at the bottom of the frame. You can then select the display type, check the input fields, and move them to change the order of entry.

Danke!

Setting the display options from the eye icon worked perfectly for the Quick Entry (from my original post).

Unfortunately, I am having the same problem with the Inbox, changing the display options does not seem to alter the behavior.

Anyone else having this problem? Any help appreciated.

When entering tasks in the inbox, use the “eye” at the top of the frame to adjust the order of the fields using the indicator that then appears.

Never noticed the eye at that location. Thanks @Monika!

Thank you again. I experimented with the suggested solution in the Inbox and found the following (frustrating) results, with the cursor jumping to tags first whether it’s first or second in the order.

Default. Order = Projects, Tags, etc. (i.e. the desired workflow). First cursor landing spot with Tab bar = Tags (i.e. spot #2 or unexpected result)

Alternative. Order = Tags, Projects etc. (i.e. reversed, but not desired workflow ). First cursor landing spot with Tab bar = Tags (i.e. spot #1 or expected result given order)

Perhaps this is a bug. Is anyone else seeing this result?

Note, it works correctly in Quick Entry
