It's not XForms "grabbing" the focus, it's the Window Manager
or Desktop giving it te focus as far as I know/ Usually you
set different modes in the Window Manager, one of them is
"Focus follows mouse" (or "Sloppy Focus", with an associated
delay, and that's what I guess must be set. There are more
settings like "Raise Window when Focussed" etc. None of this
is under the control of a program (using XForms or some other
GUI library) as these are user preferences the Window/Destop
Manager enforces. What you're looking for is probably the
"Click-to-focus" mode.
Best regards, Jens
