runTool() does not set Focus to active Document

[sarnold_688]

I have an external script that writes to the outputWindow. I copy that, process the output, write to activeDocument.

After it runs, I seem to still be in the "Script List" (this is how I envoked it by dbl-clicking it).
If I use the popup "Run", it works fine.
If I envoke it in the Scripting Menu, it works fine.
It just seems that dbl-clicking in there is my problem.

How can I set focus back to the ActiveDocument?

What about using this simply code:

Code: Select all

// Remember the current active file before real start of the script.
var CurrentFileIndex = getActiveDocumentIndex();

// Your script code.

// Make the file before script execution again the active file.
if (CurrentFileIndex >= 0 && CurrentFileIndex < UltraEdit.document.length) UltraEdit.document[CurrentFileIndex].setActive();

Here is the code for the function getActiveDocumentIndex.

I hope this works because I have not tested it. If it does not set the focus to the edit window, write an email to IDM support.

Tried it out, but it still does not return focus back to the document.
I tried "setActive()", but no luck.
I think its just the way that "double-clicking" on the "Script List" keeps the focus and I do not see a way to "CTRL-TAB" back to the active one.

For now, I'll just note that this is a problem (for double-click). but the other ways I mentioned all work ok.

thanks.
