Description | Use the focusColor property to specify the outline color of an object when it's active. Setting the focusColor of an object to empty allows the focusColor of the object's owner to show through. Use the effective keyword to find out what color is used for the object, even if its own focusColor is empty. If the focusColor is not set for any object in the object hierarchy, the system setting is used. The setting of the focusColor property has different effects, depending on the object type:
If an object's focusPattern is set, the pattern is shown instead of the color specified by the focusColor. The focusColor property has no effect on controls whose showFocusBorder property is set to false. If the lookAndFeel is set to "Macintosh" or "Appearance Manager", the focusColor affects only fields. | ||||||
