[wx-dev] wxWindowMac::SetFocus() question

[Stefan Csomor]

Hi Vadim

the issue was that on Mac many controls cannot get the focus which can on other platforms, eg push buttons, checkboxes etc. Now with the current OS X keyboard navigation can be turned on, so that the behavior is similar to other OSes.

before the HIView architecture focus handling was having more problems, now I think the only issue was that we'd get a kill focus event on the old control, even though the focus couldn't be moved, I'll check again ... (MacCanFocus is the call that tries to find out whether that control can be focused at all)

Thanks,

Stefan
