If you create you layout using the Designer, the order is established by the order in which they are present in the "Views Tree".

Otherwise, check out this library:

Best option is to use B4XPreferenceDialog.

You can set the "tab index" with the Accessibility library. Though B4XPreferenceDialog will work better.
