setFocus(false)

Added by Ben Jackson about 12 years ago

void MyWidget::handleEscapePressed() {
    _textArea->setText("I HAVE NO FOCUS!");    
    _textArea->setFocus(false);
}

If I wire this code up to _textArea->escapePressed(), the text in the textarea changes to "I HAVE NO FOCUS!", but the focus doesn't actually change. I would like to remove focus from everything so that control goes back to my globalKeyPressed handlers.

Any suggestions? (Still using 3.2.1, clients are IE9, FF16 and Chrome22 on Windows 7)

Hey,

setFocus(false) indeed does not work as intended.

As a workaround, doJavaScript("document.activeElement.blur();") should probably work ?
