Hi,

I have 2 input boxes and a Submit button. When the app starts Input 1 is in focus and I can enter both fields. However, after I hit the Submit button Input 2 is in focus. I have the Autofucus on Input 1 on and on Input 2 off.

Is there anyway to force Input 1 to be in focus after Submit?

Thanks  
Steve

Hi Steve, this may be tough as we do not have any blocks for setting or getting auto focus. There may be someone else here who has been able to find a work-around, however.
