communication with rt new layout management ctrl+tab and focus organize

Closed Issue: CTRL-TAB Focus problem/solution [12842]

TheCamel — Fri, 08 Mar 2013 12:26:24 GMT

Hi,

I found that the Comic Book Reader suffers the same CTRL-TAB problem that I previously experienced in Edi.
The solution to getting CTRL-TAB to work as expected is to set a default keyboard focus within the document view. One simple solution is to have a textbox and the FocusManager acquire focus on that textbox by default.

Documents usually have no textbox so I found a better solution, which is an attached property (see attachment). You can use it like this in your view:

... UserControl x:Class="Edi.View.StartPage" ...

Focusable="True"
KeyboardNavigation.IsTabStop="True"
Name="StartPageView"
behav:KeyboardFocus.On="{Binding ElementName=StartPageView}"

Your app is pretty cool by the way so I hope this improves the experience for those who use the keyboard (as I often do...)
Comments: Fixed

re-organize focus and ctrl+tab is ok

Commented Issue: CTRL-TAB Focus problem/solution [12842]

TheCamel — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 12:53:48 GMT

I manage that way....

public static class VisualHelper
{
public static void AllowFocus(UIElement element)
{
if (!System.ComponentModel.DesignerProperties.GetIsInDesignMode(element))
{
element.Focusable = true;
element.SetValue(KeyboardNavigation.IsTabStopProperty, true);
element.SetValue(KeyboardFocus.OnProperty, element);
}
}

just need to call in view constructors for documents only

VisualHelper.AllowFocus(this);

works for all view types
no need to give name or create controls

Thanks to you...will be published soon

Yes I would recommend this for all types of documents. You can also verify this in a codeproject article where I discuss this problem in more depth:
