Additional context

Allowing tab navigation into and out of the QML parts of this dialog is probably not in scope for this issue. Keyboard navigation in UIs that mix QML and QtWidgets is an unsolved problem (well, there are known workarounds, but in our case it's extra complicated because in QML we have our own keyboard nav implementation).

Should be solved in Qt Creator's design view; go to editstyle.ui, click the tiny "edit tab stops" button at the top of the window, and figure out how that works. Tip: right-click > "tab order list" is useful.

Possibly, other pages are affected too. Updating the keyboard navigation order has to be done after every edit to the dialog, but is very easy to forget.

FWIW, I often find it simpler to just edit the UI file directly (as text) for this type of thing.
