Setting Focus on User Interface Controls

 

   

Creating User Interfaces - Quick Navigation

You can set the focus on a specific User Interface Control Item using 

setFocus <rollout_ui_item>

EXAMPLE: 

rollout testFocus "Test Focus"
(
  edittext text1 "Test"
  edittext text2 "Focus"
)
createDialog testFocus 200 100
setFocus testFocus.text2 -- the second text field gets focus!

In 3ds Max 6 and higher,

SetFocus() can be used to set focus on ActiveX controls, too.
