Chris Bartlett commented on PIVOT-720:
--------------------------------------
Has anyone got any comments or ideas on this ticket?
I will soon need similar functionality for a project I am working on, so can
try to address this ticket at the same time if there is some overlap.
> Want keystrokes to go to the native OS window that has focus
> ------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: PIVOT-720
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-720
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: wtk
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Bill van Melle
> Fix For: 2.1
>
>
> If you use DesktopApplicationContext.createDisplay to create a new OS window,
> and you want to handle keystrokes sent to that window, the only way your key
> listener will get called is if there is a focused Pivot component in that
> window. But not all interesting windows contain a focusable component, and
> even when they do, there are often good reasons not to focus a particular
> component by default. Meanwhile, if Pivot's notion of the currently focused
> component is in a different OS window, keystrokes will go there, even though
> it's not the window that appears to the user to have focus (as judged by the
> native window system focus decoration), which is counterintuitive.
> There is extensive discussion at
> http://apache-pivot-users.399431.n3.nabble.com/KeyListeners-on-ImageView-td2600622.html
