ScriptLabel.grabFocus()

[David Healey]

@Oli-Ullmann said in ScriptLabel.grabFocus():

shouldn't the corresponding label be brought into focus when I press the button, and shouldn't I be able to start typing right away using the keyboard?

That is what I would expect

[Oli Ullmann]

@David-Healey
It didn't work. ChatGPT helped me. Here's how it works:

Content.callAfterDelay(30, function()
{
	ScriptLabel.grabFocus();
}, this);

[David Healey]

@Oli-Ullmann So it works with the callAfterDelay? This looks like a bug that Claude Code could fix.

@David-Healey
Maybe it's because the label is in a different panel than the button...
In any case, Content.callAfterDelay was ChatGPT's first suggestion. So I don't know if it's a bug or intended behavior.

Will need to test

[David Healey]

@Oli-Ullmann It's working here without callAfterDelay. Give this snippet a try.

@David-Healey
Oh, you used if(!value). That works for me too! :-) Was that on purpose, or was it a mistake?

[Oli Ullmann]

@David-Healey
Okay, it seems to work sometimes and not others. Because now it's not working again.

[David Healey]

@Oli-Ullmann If it's a momentary button the callback is triggered when you press the button and also when you release the button.

Using if (!value) means the action after that line will only be called when you release the mouse.

Make a minimal snippet to demonstrate

[Oli Ullmann]

@David-Healey
I found the problem. I also set a text using the button and then I move the focus to the label. That's why it doesn't work. Here's a snippet based on yours:

But with Content.callAfterDelay it is working.

[David Healey]

@Oli-Ullmann Ah ok, I think changing the text then the focus is probably resetting something when it happens so quickly, so in this instance callAfterDelay is the right approach.

[Oli Ullmann]

@David-Healey
As always, thanks a lot, David! :-)
