Setfocus issue

[Ron Klinkien]

Hi,

I have a window with 2 Textboxes I want to give focus to TextBox2 upon
loading of the form, if I open the form as a normal window, it's ok.
Textbox2 gets the focus.
If I load the form on a workspace, TextBox2.SetFocus doesn't work.

See attached example project

Do I have to reread the docs and shame myself, or should it work the
same way with workspace and normal window?

Regards,
Ron the 2nd.

Like so:
---

PUBLIC SUB Button3_Click()

  OpenPage(FBarcode)

END

' load a page onto the workspace
PUBLIC SUB OpenPage(hForm AS Form)

  Workspace1.Add(hForm)
  Workspace1.ActiveWindow = hForm
  hForm.SetFocus
 
END
---

Instead of:

PUBLIC SUB Button1_Click()

  FBarcode.Show

END

Ron.

There were some bugs in both gb.qt, gb.gtk and gb.form.mdi. I fixed them in
revision #1433.

Hi,

I just upgraded to #1433, but it doesn't seem to work (when you click
the "not ok" button) in my example project SetFocus-0.0.1.tar.gz in my
earlier mail.

Regards,
Ron the 2nd.

Yes, because you call hForm.SetFocus() just after adding it to the Workspace,
so the SetFocus inside the Open event handler is lost!

I had remove hForm.SetFocus() before, because I suspected the same, but
that was yesterday, before your bugfix.

I use the OpenPage() routine, so it opens a form if it isn't on the
workspace yet, or it lets a form gets focus (in front) when it was
already added before.
So I always have 1 form of each name opened ones, and not more than once.

But I needed that hForm.SetFocus() call to let my application work ok,
which I found strange to begin with, the Workspace1.Activewindow = hForm
should be enough, but it seems that one of your bugfixes fixed that too,
so hForm.SetFocus() isn't needed anymore to get a window in front.

Even better! Thanks.

Regard,
Ron the 2nd.
