I need this too, I'm designing a touch-screen keyboard and I need to know the control that has focus so that I can write on it everytime this keyboard is launched... I digged into the unit Controls but could find nothing, there's a function to find the next control in the tab list but not the current one... any ideas any one? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of rodbracher Sent: Friday, May 13, 2005 9:46 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [delphi-en] Knowing my active object to get position Hi How can I tell my current form position according to my active object? What I am trying to do is to display a 'help' bubble above each object as I tab along the form when the app is in 'help' mode. If I know the name of the active object, I can surely get its for position, hint text etc.?
