Examples

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

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