<p>welcome to the GPGTools support platform. Sorry to hear you are having problems using GPG Suite.</p>
<p>The behavior your are describing is the default behavior in macOS. And even after setting "All controls" in Keyboard > Shortcuts, the checkbox will still be skippen. You can see this in this old iDB video: <a href="https://www.idownloadblog.com/2015/03/15/tab-key-between-buttons-mac-os-x/">https://www.idownloadblog.com/2015/03/15/tab-key-between-buttons-ma...</a></p>
<p>Can you share an example of macOS allowing tabbing through a checkbox in a dialog?</p>
<p>Best, Steve</p></div>Stevetag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/491989412021-05-16T17:19:26Z2021-05-16T17:19:26ZMacGPG: can't tab to checkboxes or buttons in pinentry-mac<div><p>Tested enabling <code>System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Use keyboard navigation to move focus between controls</code> and that does exactely what you are asking for.</p>
<p>Best,<br>

(I suppose the only reason I haven't noticed this before now is I've never had to do this before now with any other app.)</p></div>jiktag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/491989412021-05-16T18:27:14Z2021-05-16T18:27:14ZMacGPG: can't tab to checkboxes or buttons in pinentry-mac<div><p>Had to think a while to come up with a different app dialog using checkboxes. This behavior has also changed over time as the old tutorial video I linked in comment 1 does not cover checkboxes. So Apple did there homework and added this improved (and useful) behavior in recent years.</p>
<p>Glad this is solved for you. I'm closing this discussion. Should you need further assistance or have questions you can re-open this discussion here or open a new one any time.</p>
<p>Best,<br>
