I am afraid whether I would be able to articulate this well enough:

In case of iTunes, the tag editor highlights the same item even though I press previous/next song button.

However, in MB, when I press the previous or next song button, the cursor just disappears

and I have to click the tag area again, which slows my process.

I wish this would be fixed in the next version

What version of MusicBee are you using?? (Menu > Help > About)

I just tried what I think you meant and all working as expected for me!

MusicBee has be upgraded at least 70 times since the version you're using, so it would be beneficial for you to try this recent patch...

https://getmusicbee.com/patches/MusicBee33_Patched.zip

Unzip and replace the existing MusicBee files..

You do mean this edit panel?

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/musicbee/images/e/ee/Edit_-_Properties.png/revision/latest?cb=20160313233120

Ok I tried it again here and it works just fine..

What TAB in the TAG editor is it that is losing focus to the text box or cursor?

Properties, Tags, Tags (2), Artwork, Lyrics, Settings or all of them?

Of course we could be tottaly misunderstanding what your issue is, so if it still persists, then more information or a screenshot from you would be useful..

Okay, actually I was talking about the tag editor embedded in the main screen, not as a popup window.

Would you please test this ?

Thanks a ton

Tested here, with the issue OP is reporting. Moving between files with a docked Editor window, you have to click back into it each time.
Bee excellent to each other...

I cannot reproduce this behaviour. Can you send me a link to your settings file (help/ support/ view settings)

Test by request..Confirmed 'bug'
Open Track Editor (Shift+Enter) - Works ok. ㋡

Switch view to Horizontal Edit Panel via "Show in Main Panel" button,  Click on Tag TAB, Focus DOES NOT stay within text box after selecting "Next" or "Previous Track" using the arrows. ☹

Currently, for me, Help > About shows: 3.3.7175 P  -  is that not, at least in part, the Version number?  ???
Files > Properties > Details shows 3.3.7175.30239 (24-08-2019 @ 16:59).
