Hi Les, In ULC, temporary focus events (FocusEvent#isTemporary()) are not forwarded to the server.
You will need to extend the component for which you want to capture all focus events. Please see the snippet at the end of this mail. ULC does not provide an API for menu listeners. If you wish you could extend ULCMenu to handle this event. Please see the ULC Extension Guide for implementing events. Thanks and regards, Janak -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Les Thomas Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2006 9:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: 'Les Thomas' Subject: [ULC-developer] Focus Lost Bug I believe I have discovered a bug with focus lost events for a text field. I have a text field with a focus event listener and a menu. If I click into the text field, the text field correctly receives the focus gained event. However, if I click on the menu item, the text field never receives a focus lost event. This is different behavior than Swing. Can you provide any workarounds? I am trying to implement a solution where menu items become enabled or disabled based upon whether a text field has focus. Also, Swing's JMenu can have menu listeners that will receive menu selected, menu deselected and menu cancelled events. Is there an equivalent in ULC? If I can get the menu select event, then I could assume that the text field no longer has focus. Finally, is there any equivalent Swing UndoManager functionality in ULC? Do you have any built in support for implementing undo functionality in ULC? I have provided a test case for ULC and Swing to demonstrate the focus bug.
