This is actually just a stack of screens for a Cairngorm app. When a
screen becomes active, I'd like to reset the form on that screen and
set the focus to the first form field. Pretty common problem, I just
couldn't find the right event.
I was trying creationComplete(), added(), add(), and addedToStage()...
I was plodding through the docs trying to find the right event.
Looks like show() is the right one! I love learning a new language,
but I hate getting stuck on silly stuff like this.
Thanks!
