●
Speech tool finishes enunciating text for the container.
Defaults to left-to-right top-to-bottom order.
In order to serve the speech tool, the chain of
next
links may include boilerplate objects. Such
objects cannot accept input focus. Therefore, when advancing focus to the next input widget, the
XFA application continues traversing the chain until it reaches an object that does accept input
focus. It is up to the template creator to ensure that the template does not present the XFA
application with a non-terminating loop.
back
Destination when the user presses Shift-Tab on a PC, or the corresponding key on other platforms.
Defaults to right-to-left bottom-to-top order.
down
Destination when the user presses the down-arrow key. Defaults to top-to-bottom order.
first
This property is applicable only when the container is a subform or subform set. The link points to
the child container that gains focus when the container is entered. In effect, the container
delegates focus via this link. If the container does not specify a "first" child container, the top left
child container becomes by default the first to be traversed.
left
Destination when the user presses the left-arrow key. Defaults to right-to-left order.
right
Destination when the user presses the right-arrow key. Defaults to left-to-right order.
up
Destination when the user presses the up-arrow key. Defaults to bottom-to-top order.
The ref property
A SOM expression identifying the destination object. The expression must resolve to a valid layout node. If
the
script
property is provided, this property is ignored.
The script property
An
automation
to a valid layout node. If the
script
element is provided, it takes precedence over the
ref
attribute. See

The use property
Invokes another object in the same document as a prototype for this object. The content of this property is
either a SOM expression (which cannot start with '#') or a '#' character followed by an XML ID.
Starting with XFA 2.4 the object used as a prototype no longer needs to be the child of
proto
. Any object
of the appropriate class can be used as a prototype.
If both
use
and
usehref
are non-empty
usehref
takes precedence.
