FocusManager.GetFocusedElement Method (DependencyObject)

Silverlight

Other Versions

Gets the element with focus within the specified focus scope.

Namespace: System.Windows.Input
Assembly: System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

Copy

public static Object GetFocusedElement(
	DependencyObject element
)

Parameters

element: Type: System.Windows.DependencyObject
Declares the scope.

Return Value

Type: System.Object
The element in the specified focus scope that has current focus.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentNullException	element cannot be null

Remarks

Generally there is only a single focus scope in a Silverlight application. However, modal dialogs and popups can introduce additional focus scopes, in which case using the overload that enables specifying the scoping object might be necessary.

In the current implementation, passing an element parameter value that is not of type Window will result in a returned value of null.
