B4J Question Focus on App

[Patent]

Dear Community,

wanna get the OS-Focus (MS-Windows) (to handle the key-events) to my B4J App if i do a Mouse-Hover over my App.
If i Mouseclick to my App it works as usually, the OS -and Java and so on send the Key Events to my App. All right.
If another App has the Focus the Key-Events goes to this App.
Right OS Behaviour at all.
(Mouse -Entered Events are working without this OS-Focus as well).

Question as above: How set the OS-Focus (for Key Events)?

thanks for ideas

You could use hotkeys - but you need to find combinations that are not used by other running apps. CTRL+ALT+J etc.

If you want all keypresses to go to your app, then you are basically writing a keylogger, Windows will fight against that and so will most A/V softwre.

Thanks for Thinking!

I want to clarify:
I got the Mouse_Entered Event on MainForm, if the app has the OS Focus or not, i got it. OK
So i could handle the Focus-Thing.
But
Root(B4XView).RequestFocus will not work, if the General OS Focus is not on my App.

You need to get the app handle ans set the focus, using either reflection or jna
