Detecting focus [message #485424]

I have an editor based on FormEditor. In normal usage, there can be two or
more of these editors running at any given time. What is the best way to
detect which of the instances has the current focus and detect when they do
get or lose the focus? I tried using IPartListener, but it appears to only
detect when the object is "active" and not when it has focus.

TIA, Ric

Doh! Just implement setFocus(). I did that first time. Don't know why it
didn't work initially. Works as expected now. Sorry for the noise.
