No FocusRing on TextArea?

Just noticed that If I create a new project, and then drag a Text Area onto the window, and set it to use a FocusRing in the inspector - the TextArea does NOT get the FocusRing?

Is this a bug, or am I missing something blindingly obvious??

are you sure there is nothing stealing focus from the TA?
I have never not had a focus-ring show up when the control did indeed have the focus, except in those situations (most) where I purposely turned it off.

I created a new empty project with just a text area - there is no code anywhere?
I can type in the TA fine, but no focus ring :frowning:

you Sir, are correct…

I created a new project, dropped a couple of controls… and no focusring

I guess this is a bug then?

What platform? From the LR:

That explains it then :frowning:

Does seem odd though to allow a TextField to use a FocusRing, but not a TextArea?
It means the UI looks inconsistent.

Oh well.
Thanks.

Apple guidelines never had a focus ring for TextAreas. Mysteries of Apple catechism :wink:

You could place a 2 pixels wider and taller canvas centered underneath the TextArea and draw a blue rectangle on it in the TextArea.GotFocus, then erase it in TextArea.LostFocus.
