Textfield doesn't lose focus when other gadgets are interacted with

[skn3Participant]

Looking at the code it looks like not all gadgets/views are currently calling  MakeKeyView. So for example if I select a textfield, then select a list item, then the textfield cursor remains.

P.S. where do you want bug reports, here or on Github issues?

ListView does not currently respond to key events.

Mojox is still a WIP, so there will be many ‘holes’ like this in it. Things’ll happen over time, but if you’re after a 100% complete GUI system mojox probably isn’t for you!

Sorry I have probably given the impression that I am complaining about monkey2. I was just trying to be helpful.

MojoX is working out great for me at the minute! Really quick to get some basic tool stuff running.

The bug report in this thread was causing a crash for me. I had a Lambda function that was responding to textfield changes, after clicking the listview and then typing, it was hard crashing the app. I fixed it by manually setting the KeyView in my app code.

No problem, just wanted to make extra sure you realized that mojox is currently a bit , erm, idiosyncratic.

But by the look of the screenshot, you seem to be doing just fine!

Nothing wrong with some idiosyncrasies

Bug report:

Well basically just that there doesn’t currently seem to be any Focus/Blur handling for views. Its implemented for items that receive text input, but not for others. So I am able to keep typing in a text field, even after I have clicked a button that should have blurred it.

As you have suggested this is probably more of a WIP issue then a bug. For now I can just manually add it into bits of my code, but it would be good if all views handled this and then reported OnFocus and OnBlur event callbacks.

Bug report:

Ahh, OK, though it was another bug as you didn’t mention a crash originally.

Any way for me to easily reproduce the crash?

[skn3Participant]

Ok I have created something that will reproduce. Now that I have isolated it, it turns out that it is actually a bug (and not my own user error) .

Steps:

1. press “item2” button
2. select the text field and position the cursor at the end of the text
3. press “item1” button
4. start typing on the keyboard
5. CRASH
