UserControl Focus Problem

Hi

I have a vustom usercontrol that reacts by changing the background
color when it receivess focus. However if i subsequently add another
control to the usercontrol, that child control receives the focus
rather than the usercontrol. I can understand why this is, i was
wondering if there is any way to force the parent control to have the
focus rather than the child control?

Cheers

Blu.

My problem is: I have comboboxes which resides in a usercontrol. Always when the usercontrol changes its visible status (the dialog is shown or you switch to the tabpage where the usercontrol is), all text is selected in the textfield of the combobox. Is this a Bug? If yes, is there a workaround? -- cody

Hi all, I have a problem regarding use of a usercontrol in .NET. My usercontrol consists of two listviews which I say as source and destination lisviews which contains the files and folders.

We have a custom word processing type editor built with C# and .NET 2.0 and we need to support typing in languages other than English.

Hi I found lot of messages in this group on this issue but nothing actually explains it quite clearly. I've a user control with a text box and a list view. When i set the focus to the user control i want that the list view's 1st item be selected and should look in blue. However there's no way i can override on what should happen when Focus() is called on my user control.

Hi, I am in the process of writing a custom control. In the OnMouseDown method I call this.Focus() to enable the control to receive keystrokes in OnKeyDown(). My control is hosted in a MDI form. Originally my control inherited from UserControl, but then the call to this.Focus() returned false and no keypresses were received. The I changed it to inherit from Control and everything works as expected.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
