Answer 1

Hi there, Just a simple search through the API would give you Component.requestFocus(), is that what you need?

Answer 2

Now that we've searched the API all we need to do is read the API.

According to the API documentation:

"Because the focus behavior of this method is platform-dependent, developers are strongly encouraged to use requestFocusInWindow when possible. "
