Hello Mathias,
Thanks for your answer. Here is the specification of my system
OS version (including Desktop version if not Windows)
I'm using linux + KDE
Java version
java version 1.5.0_10. + eclipse 3.2.1
OOo version
OpenOffice.org 2.1
A few words about how I embedded OpenOffice.org in the application:
I embedded it in a eclipse "view". The code I used is the same as Cedric Bosdonnat used in its "OpenOffice editor in Eclipse" plugin.
Whenever an other view goes active, the cursor in OpenOffice.org is still
active. (see screenshot http://www2.dfki.de/~dbeck/hylap/focus_error.png : the
Question Answering view is active, the user can however not write in it because
the cursor is still active in OOo Writer).
Thanks,
Daniel

Hello openoffice mailing list,
I integrated OpenOffice.org into a SWT+java based application.
OpenOffice.org is only one part of the GUI. OOo seems to "steal" the
focus to the other components of that GUI: it is not possible to enter
characters in any other window. Instead, each time I enter a character,
it is written in the opened OpenOffice.org document.
I want to remove the focus from OpenOffice.org each time a user selects
an other widget of the Java GUI (i.e. if the users selects a text input
form, the focus should be removed from OpenOffice.org and given to the
input form).
I saw that "XWindow" has a "setFocus" method, but no "removeFocus" method.
How can I remove programmatically remove the focus from OpenOffice.org?
You can't; and besides that it doesn't make sense. Setting the focus
into the window of another application should be enough. BTW: if that
doesn't work I assume a hypothetical "removeFocus" wouldn't work either.
Usually OOo doesn't "steal" the focus. If that happens in your Java
appliation embedding OOo I assume that it's a tricky Java/OOo problem.
Could you please tell us what you are using exactly:
OS version (including Desktop version if not Windows)
Java version
OOo version
And are you using the OOo bean?
Ciao,
Mathias
