Hello,
I have a RadTextBoxElement within a RadToolStripItem. When a specific button is pressed I want the text box to receive focus, but the focus method returns false (and doesn't do anything).
I have tried setting CanFocus, Enabled and Visibility to true and visible but the focus method still doesn't work. Any ideas on how to make it work?

Hello Johan,
In order to focus the text box, you should call the Focus() method of the RadTextBoxElement.TextBoxItem:
The above will focus the text box with its whole text selected. Should you prefer to have no text selected, or only a part of it selected, call the Select() method passing the appropriate selection values:
If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me.
