Moving focus from a TreeCtrl to another Window

wxPython Users

I have an XML editor running in a StyledTextCtrl. I also have a TreeCtrl in the same panel that shows a simplified tree structure of teh XML. If I select an item in the tree, the StyledTextCtrl moves the cursor to the appropriate line, and then raises the StyledTextCtrl.

However, if I double click on a tree item, the cursor in the StyledTextCtrl moves, but the STC doesn’t take contjoshuae

Arg. Text Expansion Macro kicked in.

Anyway, I’m capturing the EVT_TREE_ITEM_ACTIVATED item event, and using wx.CallLater to call editor.Raise(). The window scrolls as needed no matter what, it just doesn’t change focus on a double click of the tree item.

How can I force it to move the focus to the editor? I’ve tried SetFocus and SetFocusFromKbd and neither one has worked.

Here’s the file. It’s got more than it needs to see the problem, but apparently out of all the permutations I tried, wx.CallAfter(self.editor.SetFocus) wasn’t one of them, because that’s working now.

I hate myself.
