focusManager in FB4

[Rburn]

I moved a project created in flex 3 to FB4 and it works fine using sdk 3.5 If i set it to 4.1 sdk

I get one error related to the focusManager.

focusManager.moveFocus(mx.events.FocusRequestDirection.FORWARD);

This command is used to move the cursor forward to the next tabindex in my application. Can someone help me out

in what this has changed to? I know i've had isues with this in the 3 series sdk and it worked correctly i belive when sdk 3.3

hit as it had a problem in mac versus pc. So in sdk 3.5 with air 2 it works correctly but changing sdk to 4.1 and trying (no compatibility mode or flex 3 compatibility mode) it errors on compile.

Description    Resource    Path    Location    Type
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method moveFocus through a reference with static type mx.managers:IFocusManager.    keyevent_functions.as    /BeamPro2/src    line 124    Flex Problem

i have the following imports

import mx.events.FocusRequestDirection;
import mx.managers.FocusManager;
import mx.managers.IFocusManager;
import mx.managers.IFocusManagerComplexComponent;
import mx.events.FocusRequestDirection;

thanks for any help.

just to follow up on this - another forum answered this and it worked well in mac and win

It's  been removed in the Flex 4 SDK.Can you instead try:

Code:

focusManager.setFocus( focusManager.getNextFocusManagerComponent() );
