But I'm developing a TextArea bean. Now If you
consider
as a single bean, it will never know what the
next component
is. In such cases i will never know what is the
parameter to be
passed as setNextFocusableComponent(). so I need
to use
transferFocus() which will always transfer the
focus in the
forward direction. So my shift + tab will not
work.
Thanks a lot for the response.
kind regards

Subject: [jdjlist] focus problem
Hi all,Is there any better way to transfer a focus other than
transferFocus() ??I want my focus to go to the next component when the
user presses the TAB in the JTextArea. As of now, I have
implemented it by using transferFocus() .. but the problem
comes when i press SHIFT + TAB...transferFocus() is a shady method because it will always
propogate the focus in the forward direction. Unfortunately
there is no way to transfer the focus in backward direction
(at least i cant think of ..) ?Does anyone has any ideas how to transfer the focus in
the reverse direction .. or may be at least to find out the
direction of the focus ?
kind regards
abhay
