REMARK: Focus problem with panes

 

It's about time CJ would take the time and write an article about this. It seems that many members have problems with this and there isn't a solution (yet). I'm a "mouse user" myself, so I don't notice such things so easy but if you're a "keyboard user" and they are the ones who use the TAB key more often and expect they can use the key to "step" to all controls inside the app. I did an attempt once but did not succeed (I don't allow users to float panes !!!), sometimes the selected pane will always be selected and you can click or TAB what you want, it will stay selected. The general problem is that it's doesn't work all the time, and most of the time, isn't good enough.  

 

Contents of article would be:

 

I'm willing to provide a test project if a support member writes the article. They know best what to use and also know what / why developers implemented it. So this post is not about pointing fingers to anyone, just to have clarity about the focus problem.

 

If you feel I'm wrong about this or have remarks, just reply, please DO

 

 

 

Thanks for reply. And what we want to know is: Is there something to get around this except having non floating panes? It's a nice option and we really want to use it. There has to be a way...

 

Thanks

 

 

 

Would be nice if support member would reply on previous reply

 

Thanks in advance

 

 

 

I was thinking out loud with previous replies  I wanted to make a point so you could make some modification for the floating pane issue. I tested again with some test project I created a while ago and now I don't see what the (real) problem is anymore... Did you fix it in latest release ???

 

Maybe I have to dig a little futher to fully understand what is going wrong.

 

Thanks
