View 39 RepliesI have a sequence of ASP.NET web forms, each holding a placeHolder control and 3 buttons: "Previous Page", "Quit" and "Save Answers" (in this order). On page-load event, the placeHolder is programmatically filled with a list of questions an a series of radioButtonList's for answering, and the focus is set on the "Save Answers" button using btnSaveAnswers.focus()
When the page loads, the focus is set on the "Save Answers" button as expected. The problem is that when i start clicking in radio buttons to answer questions, the focus shift on the "Previous Page" button (maybe because its the first in the row?) but i want it to stay on "Save Answers". So ho could i prevent shifting of the focus?Enclosing the 3 buttons on a panel and setting the defaultButton="Save Answers" property of the panel did not work. The tabIndex of the 3 buttons are 3, 1 and 0 respectively

View 5 RepliesI created a toolstrip with some buttons. I have a form with some objects (like textbox,checkbox,button etc.) and when i get the focus on last item,when i finish to compile i need with tab on keyboard to get focus on save button on the toolstrip.
View 1 RepliesThe scenario is two forms. Form A has a button. You click on the button to open form b. Form b opens. Close form b. The focus returns to the button on form a. When the focus returns to form A, I'm trying to put the focus on another object like a text box and it won't go there. It keeps going back to the button. If I try to set the focus to a text box, the focus event of the text box is triggered but then it still continues to go back to the button. If I disable the button then I can prevent the focus from going back there, but then I can't use the button.
View 7 RepliesBasically, I have a form with about 15 text boxes. Most are in different tab pages. By default, text boxes allow anybody to copy and paste by using keyboard shortcuts.I added a tool strip up top and make the "Cut", "Copy", and "Paste" buttons. What I want to do is make them work for whichever text box was last focused. So if I click the Cut button on the tool strip, it will cut the text of the
last text box that was focused.
Example:I open the program and type in TextBox1. Then I type in TextBox2. I want to copy the contents of the last text box by using the Copy key at the top, so I click that and it copies TextBox2 as it was the last focused textbox.
Like I said, I'm not fully sure how possible this is as I do have many. The whole reason I have the tool strip is for users that prefer using a mouse for everything rather than keyboard shortcuts.

I am writing a control in WPF that draws a shape on a form and then draws dimensions of this shape. These dimensions are editable so they are shown in a text box. When the user changes a dimension in a text box the shape is updated. I am updating the shape when the textbox showing the dimension loses focus i.e. as soon as the text box loses the focus the shape and all the dimensions are redrawn.
A text box loses focus in one of two ways - either when user presses tab key or when user clicks in another control outside the text box. My problem is that when user presses tab key or clicks somewhere else outside the text box the whole control is redrawn and the focus is not set to the next control where it should be. This is really annoying because tabs stop working altogether and to set a focus using mouse the user has to click twice.
An image of my control is shown below

I am working on a timing program and have a start button programmed to clear all the variables and start timing events. I have another button programed to stop the timing and show the data. The problem is that when I place the cursor on the start button and press the left mouse button it workes fine, but when I move the cursor to the stop button and press the left mouse button the start buttons 3D showes that it was pressed? Since the start button clears all of the data there is nothing to display in the text boxes. If I press the left mouse button again the stop buttons 3D shows that it was pressed. Have looked everywhere for a hint as to what to do but have found nothing yet.
