Window refuses focus

[fdservices]

I have a main window which generates a second window on to of the first. I would like to make it so that the main window refuses to take the focus, an that if the main window is clicked then the second window automatically takes the focus, if that makes sense. Grab does not make the first window refuse the focus, and I have tried bindings without any success.

Can someone suggest how I can make this happen.

All the best

What binding have you tried? That seems to me to be the way to go:

toplevel .tl1
bind . <Button-1> {focus .tl1}

I actually tried FocusIn, but I will give the Button-1 a try and see i I get a result.

Thanks for the reply

What I have done is removed the grab that I set up and replace it with:

bind . <FocusIn> {focus .tl1}

and it seems to work. Only time will tell!

Thnaks for steering me in the right direction with the <Button-1>, I realised that the grab was operating before the bind had a chance.

All the best
