Change focus on node select

[Alexander]

Hello,

I want to select a control in my form when the user selects a node.
This works when selecting the node with the keyboard but when i select a node with the mouse, the node gets the focus after the SelectedNodeChanged event.
Is there any way to tell the Treeview not to steal the focus?

Hello Alexander,

Thank you for writing.

When you click the node of RadTreeView as you mentioned the focus is set after the SelectedNodeChanged event is fired. To set the focus to other control after the mouse is clicked you can subscribe to the MouseUp event.

private void radTreeView1_SelectedNodeChanged(object sender, RadTreeViewEventArgs e)
{
    string nodeText = e.Node.Text;
    SetFocusToControl(nodeText);
}

private void radTreeView1_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
    if (this.radTreeView1.SelectedNode == null)
    {
        return;
    }
    string nodeText = this.radTreeView1.SelectedNode.Text;
    SetFocusToControl(nodeText);
}

private void SetFocusToControl(string nodeText)
{
    if (nodeText == "RadButton")
    {
        this.radButton1.Focus();
    }
    else if (nodeText == "RadDropDownButton")
    {
        this.radDropDownButton1.Focus();
    }
}

I hope this information helps.
