RE: [flexcoders] Re: Problem with focus in secondary popups
The Flex Framework has some built-in functionality around popups. In
general, you should not need to call FocusManager.activate() or
SystemManager.activate() unless you are in some unexpected scenario.
I modified your example and it seemed to work correctly for me. Here
are the changes I made:
SimplePopUp.mxml
private function fClose():void
{
PopUpManager.removePopUp(this);
if (m_pParent is CMyPanel)
{
//
CMyPanel(m_pParent).fSetFocus();
}
}
CMyPanel.as
public function fSetFocus():void
{
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(this);
//var fm:FocusManager = new FocusManager(this);
//fm.activate();
//fm.setFocus(m_InitialFocus as IFocusManagerComponent);
m_InitialFocus.setFocus();
//fm.showFocus();
//systemManager.activate(this);
m_bFocused = true;
}

Hi Alex,
I have created a simple test case:
http://mitek.id.au/TestPopUpSimple.html
http://mitek.id.au/TestPopUpSimple.html
Source:
http://mitek.id.au/PopupFocus.zip http://mitek.id.au/PopupFocus.zip
http://mitek.id.au/CMyPanel.as http://mitek.id.au/CMyPanel.as - is
the base class for the popup
window - it performs all the focusing stuff.
Actually this class can focusing without any problem BUT only if
popups are created automatically in one go.
As soon as you use button clicks to create popups - TAB focus is stuck
in the first one and it won't be restored ever.
Even if you close all popups and start it over again.
NB updateComplete listener - is not essential in this particular case,
but I need in because I use my own caching popupmanager where popups
are reused and then creationComplete won't be dispatched for them
http://mitek.id.au/SimplePopUp.mxml
http://mitek.id.au/SimplePopUp.mxml - derived from CMyPanel - just
handles 2 buttons - New and Close
http://mitek.id.au/TestPopUpSimple.mxml
http://mitek.id.au/TestPopUpSimple.mxml - main app.
Just run it, then press New and then press TAB - cursor will move in
the first popup, but selection will be in the second popup.
Could you please have a look at this problem?
Thanks!
Dmitri.

Still with my boring focus problem. Ralf reflexactions - I've learnt how to place focus in the control in the popup. But bloody hell - the TAB focus is still in the parent popup. So, if I subscribe for ESC key in the third popup - everything is OK, everybody is happy. But if I press TAB - it just goes in the popup underneath. PS Due to the Flex memory leaks/perfomance issues/garbage collector laziness I've created the caching popup manager which worsen the problem. Popup is being created only once and then it will be reused. So instead of creationComplete event in the reused popup I am listening for updateComplete events and you will be surprised that setting focus methods are different for existing windows. Does anyone know how to set TAB focus as well?
