How to change the behavior of fields after selection or input? It is necessary to make the transition to the next field.

Do you mean the "tab order" ?

The tab order is the order in which a user moves focus from one control to another by pressing the Tab key.

This is understandable, but with a large number of selectable fields, the user forgets to move and fills the same field with his hands without looking at the main form.

Menu -> Arrange Object -> Use the Up and Down buttons to change the tab order.

No, Kevin, we again do not understand each other ...
The first field is lookup, the next digital field. The user has selected a value and must fill in a digital field. He does not look at the main form after the selection, believing that it is already selected and enters numbers in the lookup field.

Let's say the user picks a value from (1). After selecting a value, should the focus be set on another field ( Nr. 2) ?

After 3 to 4, after 6 to 7.
But this is not entirely correct, I want a transition after the choice - after all, the choice has already taken place.

Can you explain this with other words?

"the choice" - what are you referring to?

"I want a transition" - what does that mean?
