[jira] [Commented] (FLEX-33772) Incorrect tab focus behavior (closed loops) when using focus groups (such as RadioButton components)

["Cosma Colanicchia (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33772?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13774482#comment-13774482 ] 

Cosma Colanicchia commented on FLEX-33772:
------------------------------------------

I tried a fix to improve the FocusManager focus group management.

I tested it locally against the attached test app, with some other samples slighly more complicated, and with one real application we are developing.

A known limitation of the approach is the behavior when landing from a element that is part of a group to an element that is part of another focus group - in this case, the "smart selection" is not always working as expected (but, IMO, it's still way better the the current behavior).

> When additional components that are not part of the focus group are positioned between two group elements, it may be impossible to move the focus away from the group using the keyboard.
