Remarks

For LineShape, OvalShape, and RectangleShape controls, the value of the Focused property is the same as the ContainsFocus property.

To give a control the input focus, use the Focus or Select methods.

Examples

The following example reports whether the specified Shape currently has the input focus.

Public Sub ReportFocus(ByVal shape As Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Shape)
    ' Determine whether the Shape has focus. 
    If shape.ContainsFocus Then
        MsgBox(shape.Name & " has focus.")
    End If 
End Sub

public void ReportFocus(Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Shape shape)
{
    // Determine whether the Shape has focus. 
    if (shape.ContainsFocus)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(shape.Name + " has focus.");
    }
}
