✔️ Expected Behavior

Activating the "Default Layout" button should not affect the focus order in an unexpected manner. The focus should remain consistent with the logical flow of the user interface elements.

❌ Actual Behavior

After activating the "Default Layout" button:

• The focus order becomes incorrect.
• The focus moves to the back side of the canvas, which is unexpected.
• When pressing the Tab key multiple times, the focus returns to the "Default Layout" button.
