I think it should be
public function ExitValidatedField():void{
focusManager.getNextFocusManagerComponent().setFocus();
}
Hitting the breakpoint shifts focus to the debugger and causes the
player and textinput to lose focus.
There might be some type-casting needed, but that should get you closer

Alex,
Thanks again for your response.
It's VERY ODD.
I've created a public function thusly..
public function ExitValidatedField():void{
focusManager.getNextFocusManagerComponent();
}
And put the following attributes into my TextInput Fields:
enter="ExitValidatedField();"
If I put a BREAKPOINT on the line of code where focusManager is being
called, then the breakpoint DOES fire, and the focus DOES leave the
field. BUT... If I REMOVE the breakpoint, then the focus does NOT
leave the field.
Do I need to manually add some REFRESH to this procedure?
I'm SOOOO confused.
Best
Steve
