How do I lose Focus?

[Mark Read]

I am writing an app which uses multiple panels. They are made visible as required. Panel one is an art menu which calls panel 2 (hiding 1 and making 2 visible). On panel 2 there are 6 edittext boxes to enter dates using the date dialog and a spinner. Selecting an item from the spinner recalls dates if there are any saved.

My problem is, if i click on an edittext and then cancel, everything is fine. If I then click the back button to go to panel 1 and then back to panel 2, the last edittext still has the focus and my datedialog pops up before I have selected from the spinner.

How can I set the focus to the spinner on making the panel visible or is this not possible.:BangHead:

Thanks for any help
Mark

EditText1703a.RequestFocus


The first part is the name of the edittext box and the second part changes focus to that. I'm not a expert but just guessing.

Consider using multiple activities instead of multiple panels. While it may look a bit more complicated, eventually you will see that it is actually simpler and more maintainable.
