Hi,
We are using a pop up window to display information about a selected item in a grid. When the user selects the grid item the window appears but it then has focus.
Is there a way to pop-up the window but retain focus on the calling control?
Regards,
Mark.

Hello Mark,
There is no built-in way to set where the focus on the page should be, but if you need something like this you can manually set the focus using the jQuery focus() method:

Hello Mark,
I would like to follow up on your ticket with the following link that shows the autoFocus feature of the Kendo UI Window, please accept my apologies for the misunderstanding in the first response:
