The radio buttons for all the different styles are in a QButtonGroup. This 
means that the whole button group gets only one tab stop. With the patch, all 
the buttons in the group were listed. I think this was confusing Qt.

I added tabstops to the .ui file with designer and i don't have all the 
buttons there, so this is my best guess as to what's going on there.

I'd recommend opening the file with Qt Designer, adding the tabstops that way, 
and then trying again. When it works, we can commit the patch. :)
