How do I fix text box focus?

Hi!,

So I'm modifying scirra's online multiplayer example, and I've hit a bump.

I want to make it so that when you press enter, the chat text box appears and gets focused. I don't want it visible all the time. I added the event "when press enter -> focus", but when I press enter it only changes to visible, and I have to click it to focus it.

Any help is appreciated. Line 75.

Thanks!

You can fix it by putting the tiniest of waits in between visible and focused, like 0.1 seconds.

A million thanks! It works now.

use a clobal variable name ChatoOn/off : 1

keybord on return presses

System trigger once add 1 ChatoOn/off

system ChatoOn/off = 1 set chatTextbox focused

system ChatoOn/off = 2 set chatTextbox unfocused

system ChatoOn/off > 2 set ChtaOn/Off= 1
