AcceptFocus property

From Xojo Documentation

(Redirected from ContainerControl.AcceptFocus)
Property (As Boolean )
a<See Below>.AcceptFocus = newBooleanValue
or
BooleanValue = a<See Below>.AcceptFocus

Supported for all project types and targets.

If True, the control will be included in the Tab order and can accept the focus. The GotFocus and LostFocus events are called at the appropriate times.

Notes

Some controls automatically accept focus, e.g. text fields or lists, so they do not have AcceptFocus property.
