The following example uses the Index of a ShapeCollection to set the focus to a shape. This example requires that you have a Button, a LineShape, an OvalShape, and a RectangleShape control on a form.
Private Sub Button1_Click() Handles Button1.Click
' Set the focus to the first shape (index 0).
ShapeContainer1.Shapes.Item(0).Focus()
End Sub
private void button1_Click(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// Set the focus to the first shape (index 0).
Shape selectedShape = ((Shape) shapeContainer1.Shapes.get_Item(0));
selectedShape.Focus();
}
