Property (As Boolean )

aTextEdit.UseFocusRing = newBooleanValue
or
BooleanValue = aTextEdit.UseFocusRing

Supported for all project types and targets.

If True, the control indicates that it has the focus with a ring around its border; if False, the appearance of the control does not change when it has the focus.

MacOS does not support focus rings for TextArea controls, so setting UseFocusRing to True has no effect in macOS builds. This is not a bug in the TextArea control.

Example

This example is in the Open event of the control:

Me.UseFocusRing = False
