Re: Window events problems

[Perriman <chuchiperriman gmail com>]

Hi Michael,

        Thanks for the info. I'm using this focus type currently. When
the user press a key (F2) I set the focus on the popup by doing that but
the problem is when the popup has not the focus and I want to set the
focus when the user uses the mouse by clicking into the window.

Thanks again
