How can I set the focused control after a Dialog Box?

I'm working on an XBAP app where Users primarily use the Keyboard for Navigation. When I display a MessageBox, I can hit Enter to close it but then the main application doesn't seem to regain focus. I have to manually click the mouse on the screen to put focus back on the application.开发者_高级运维

Is there a way around this?

Edit

I can verify that the app still has Logical Focus, but it just doesn't have Keyboard Focus

I found a hack that works, although I don't like it because I feel it ties my Views to my ViewModel

I'm using an IsFocused AttachedProperty to bind a control to a boolean property behind the View. The same View is also subscribing to a DisplayError event that displays a MessageBox error and reset the IsFocused property afterwards so it updates the UI. Last change made was to update my ViewModels to publish errors to the EventAggregator instead of handling themselves with a MessageBox, which is probably better anyways.

I suppose it works, even if I don't like it

Not sure if this will help your situation but in my circumstance it was ok for me to set focus back to main window, which was able to be accomplished with

App.Current.MainWindow.Focus();

Just be sure main window is properly initialized, which may not be the case if a splash screen or some login window or something initially grabbed the main window role (ie by StartupUri) and then nothing else was updated thereafter.

This worked for me since I was handling all keyboard events at the main window level to drive updates to my view model.

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Windows.Interop;

public class Interop
{
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern bool SetForegroundWindow(IntPtr hWnd);

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern IntPtr GetForegroundWindow();

public static IntPtr GetWindowHandle(Window window)
{
     return new WindowInteropHelper(window).Handle;
}
}

// In main window, when the MessageBox is closed
IntPtr window = Interop.GetWindowHandle(this);
IntPtr focused = Interop.GetForegroundWindow();
if (window != focused)
{ 
    Interop.SetForegroundWindow(window);
}
