Unable to focus on a field

[gwilburn]

I'm using an app variable to set the focus on an input field of a widget. I have the app variable initial value set to true. I'm also setting that app variable to true from within my form helper program (which also controls showing sections based on firing an event). I've tried setting the app variable in the event. I've also tried setting the app variable on the section ("when shown").

But when the section is shown where the form widget exists, it is not setting the focus on that in put field.

Any ideas?

You can turn off NAB auto-focusing if you're going to handle that yourself via the application setting. Image below and the tooltip for the setting is "Focusing on an editable field is being manually done with an app variable or from the backend."

OK... That seems to work.

The only reason I'm doing this from using app variables is because it was not focusing on this field, even though it is the only input capable field in the entire section.
