-->set_focus_chain

Hi Patrick,
Thanks for your answer. It helped me in
a round about way. The "set_focus_chain"
did not work for me. But that exposed me
to "set_focus_child". Actually, the following
did not work for me at all:
$window->get_focus_chain;
$window->set_focus_chain;
$label->grab_focus;
$button->grab_focus;
$entry->grab_focus;
$widget->has_focus;
$window->set_focus($widget);
Sooo much trouble with setting the
focus on a widget. However, I did
find one technique that 'almost' works.
That is:
$window->set_focus_child($widget);
It still does not (on it's own) make
the widget have the focus. But after the
screen loads, if I press the 'TAB' key,
I see the dotted rectangle appear, and
now the widget has the focus.
That is a step in the right direction, but
it still doesn't solve the problem.
Anyhow... thanks for your response.
Pete
