Jul 24, 2011I have a numerical stepper,and a user can click on a textfield, then click the up and down arrows on the stepper to change the font size,i then try and set the focus back to the textfield and put the caret at the end of the textfield, but the stepper keeps focus anyway.Here is the event handler for when the stepper value is changed.Get the textfield's current format, change the size, set the new format, then focus on the textfield and set the caret position, but the caret just stays inside the stepper.
Code:
private function handleChangeTextSize(e:Event):void
{
var tField:TextField = Main.LAST_FOCUSED_OBJECT;[code]....
I've had problems with other components too with the exact same focus issue and the only solution i've ever come up with is to set a timeout for like 100 milliseconds to set the focus back then and it works. another way to do this without the "hack"?

View 5 RepliesFlex :: Setting Focus On A Popup's TextInput Control?
Jul 27, 2010I'm trying to have a popup window with an immediately editable TextInput. This means that the user should be able to type inside the TextInput once the popup is displayed.
The problem is that I can't focus on the textInput. What happens is that when pressing a key for the first time, no text is inserted, only after a second key is pressed does the component gain focus and the user is able to type. For instance, typing "test" once the popup opened results in "est" being displayed...
For some reason the component only gains focus when the user explicitly clicks on it or types something. Programmaticaly setting the focus does not work.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Panel xmlns="mog.miss.component.*" xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" >
<mx:Script>

Actionscript 3 :: Focus On A Cell Of A DataGrid Without Setting It To Editable?
Jan 31, 2012I am currently working on making my Flex application accessible. I have an mx DataGrid that I am using for showing complex data. Each row contains information about a person and one of the columns contains a button to "submit" that person's information. Currently if I tab to the DataGrid, it has focus on the whole thing, but I cannot tab to individual cells. For accessibility purposes, I need the user to be able to tab to each of these cells to read the information. Everywhere I've looked I've found that it seems the only way to focus on an individual cell is to set the editable property to true. However, I do not want to make the field editable, as that information should not be changed.
At the very least I would like to be able to tab to the cell that has the button ItemRendender for each person. I could set the rest of the information in the accessibilityName of that. Is there any way to accomplish this? Or am I going to have to find a more "creative" solution?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Setting Focus On MC Within MC - Get The TypeError: Error #1010?
Jan 28, 2010I have a MC called Questions thats on the stage.Inside that Movie clip, there are 10 frames and four layers.The 1st layer spans all 10 frames and has a MC called logoMC and a button called nextBtn1, 2, 3, etc
The 3rd layer has frame labels for each frame: Q1, Q2, Q3, etc
The 4th layer has actions that are similar for each frame:
Code:
nextBtn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Q1btn);
function Q1btn(e:Event)
{[code]....
So what should hypothetically happen in when you click on the button, it advances to the next frame in that movie clip, and focus is set to the logo. The problem is, it isnt. I get the TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties. That is pointing to the stage.focus = this.Questions.logoMC; portion of code.
Flex - Setting Focus On A List ItemRenderer With TextArea Inside?
Oct 29, 2010I've wrote a custom itemrenderer for a List component (Flex 3.5) which is a VBox with a Label and a TextArea wrapped inside. All works fine so far but I want the TextArea in the first itemrenderer to receive focus so that it instantly becomes editable when tabbing onto the List. Is that possible and if how would I achieve this?
I've already added an event listener that selects the item at index 0 but the textArea in it should also be focussed at that moment _list.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN, onListFocusIn);
private function onListFocusIn(e:FocusEvent):void
{
_list.selectedIndex = 0;
}

ActionScript 3.0 :: How To Send Focus To TextField
Jun 7, 2011I had a question regarding the 'passing' of focus. I have a class (more like a component) which contains a TextField.If I give 'focus' to the class, how can I send the focus to the TextField (which is private to the class containing it, like a component).To elaborate, I'm not sure focus occurs on 'just the endpoint' or 'to a branch'.If focus is just given to the endpoint, how does my component disregard having focus and gives the focus to the endpoint?If focus is a given to a branch, what if focus is given (via mouse click) to the text field? I would have an event listener catch the focus event which shares the focus with the parent, but the problem there is once the parent has focus it shares the focus with the child which creates a loop.

I added event listener to catch up when the user press the ENTER key but it catches the ENTER key ONLY after I click the textfield with the mouse and having a blinking cursor in that textfield.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Focus Set - No Flashing Bar In TextField?
Feb 2, 2010In as2, I have a button that attaches a movieclip with inside some input text fields (a mail form). Now, as the tweening ends for the movieclip to actually appear (I set the _alpha to 0 as he's been created and change the value to 100 with a tween), I call a function for setting the focus on the first input text field:
Code:
function setTheFocus(){
Selection.setFocus(_root.mailtext.namex);
trace(Selection.getFocus())
}
Where 'namex' is the istance name of the input text field. The getFocus trace returns positive, so the focus is there but ... there is no flashing bar within the field. If I write something, the text appears in the right text field and the flashing bar appears. I can't get why there is no flashing bar without typing anything, even if the focus is set.

Actionscript 2.0 :: Override TextField Focus Event?
Jan 17, 2011Is it possible to override the default focus event on the in-built TextField class? So for example when a textfield gains focus a custom event is triggered rather than the default one? I know we can use the onSetFocus event, however we have over 1200 swfs that use TextFields so want to do it on a global scope rather than having to modify each individual swf. that on an Android tablet selecting a TextField brings up the android keyboard that not only shrinks the flash content, but defaults to the alpha keyboard when all we want is numeric (it's a Maths app).
