Keyboard Navigation
Managing the Focus
The ListBox component contains a list of items and, optionally, a toolbar. When the toolbar is not enabled, the component is a single-tab-stop component. When the toolbar is present, it is included in the tab sequence of the page. Depending on its position and the LTR or RTL configuration, the toolbar can either preceed or succeed the list of ListBox items. Its tab position must respect its position on the screen.
