Class SimpleTextAreaTraversal

java.lang.Object
  extended by gr.zeus.ui.typesafe.SimpleTextAreaTraversal

public final class SimpleTextAreaTraversal
extends java.lang.Object

This class can be used to replace the default traversal keys for any JTextArea object. As you already know when advancing focus inside a form, using the TAB key, when you reach a text area you need to press CTRL+TAB in order to advance the focus to the next component. With this class you can address this issue and use the TAB key instead.
