It doesn't seem like it made it into the dictionary. You can find info  
on it in the engine release notes that came with 2.9. I find it is  
always worth reading the notes that come with each engine. You will  
find all sorts of goodies.

But 'focus on nothing' does :-) This was added in 2.9. It is great  
because it will remove focus from whatever object has focus. 'select  
empty' only works if a field has focus.

Re: unfocus field

2008-12-06 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Actually in my case I do want any current selections to be lost i.e.  
not focused on or even an insertion point. I think I will go with the  
select empty and see how that works.


Thanks you guys

Hi Ken,


Hello Thomas,
You can also focus on other objects.  Your button script could say
"focus on me" and that would remove the focus from your field.

Even simpler:
 select empty

:-)


Yep, but then you will also lose all current selected text and/or  
line(s) in list fields!


So "focus on whatever" may be preferrable ;-)

Tom,

Maybe a little inelegant, but if it works when you have another field,  
why not try either a hidden or offscreen field for that purpose.

I tried showfocusborder but it does not get rid of the insertion line
"focus on" only works if I have another field to change the focus  
to, but I don't.
