PendingFocusHelper.SetFocusOnLoad Method

Definition

Either sends focus to the FrameworkElement immediately using Focus, or delays focusing the FrameworkElement until it is loaded. The last element pending focus on Loaded will be focused, and all previous FrameworkElements will not be focused.

If UIElement.MoveFocus fails to move focus into the element, focus will be cleared by invoking Keyboard.ClearFocus to clear WPF focus, and by using SetFocus to focus the HWND of HwndSource containing the element.

Parameters
