I have a TabActivity which contains an Activity. When the tab for the activity is selected, if I press the Menu button, onPrepareOptionsMenu is called in the parent TabActivity, but not on the activity for the tab which was selected.
The options menu for the activity in the tab isn't shown unless I click inside the tab, then I get calls to both (which is what I want). Is there any way to 'focus' the activity in the tab when the tab is selected?
