focus problem with multiple forms

Hello,

I have an application with multiple forms. I open 2 (different) forms,
one with numerous controls, say A, and one with a MonthCalendar, a
Combobox and a datagrid, say B.

When I work in A, but B is also open, sometimes A is set behind, and B
appears on top of A. Amazingly, B doesn't get the focus, the focus is
still in A. It's just that B appears on top of A (B's menubalk is still
gray).

Anyone familiar with this problem (and the solution) ?

I think that the MonthCalendar is to blame, but i'm not sure.

Thanks,

Steven

I cannot get my focus() fn to work in my validateInput(userInput) fn. It will not allow the user to go back and correct invalid input like it should. Instead it goes right on through with the invalid input. I used this same function in another program similar to this one and it worked just fine, but it's not working in this one. Why? My code is included below. Your help will be greatly appreciated. <html> <head> <title>Syster...

I've created some custom controls and forms that allow the feature to temporarily transfer focus to a control that has been entered by the mouse. Everything seems to work fine but the problem I have is that sometimes I seem to loose the original "holder" of focus and when the user hits tab while using "temporary" focus(while the mouse is over a control) it will change focus to the next control but not update it. So I have several issues....

Hi, I am confused about the differences between this.window.focus(), window.focus(), and this.focus(). I want to use the calls in a <body onload="..."tag. What are the differences between these forms that may make one succeed and another fail? In particular, this.window.focus() fails in Opera 9.10 with an "object not found", and windows.focus() succeeds in Opera 9.10, Firefox 2.02, and IE 7.

I've come across an interesting bug. I have workarounds but i'd like to know the root of the problem. I've stripped it down into a short file and hope someone might have an idea about what's going on. It's a simple program that loads a control onto a form and binds "Foo" against a combobox ("SelectedItem") for it's "Bar" property and a datetimepicker ("Value") for it's "DateTime" property. The DateTimePicker.Visible value is set to...

Hope someone has a solution or some suggestions for this. This cannot be right?!? Problem: I have multiple non-modal forms open at the same time. One or more of these forms have a ToolStrip, each of which has one or more ToolStripButtons.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
