no focus on a widget [message #66024]

Hi all,

I have a program that, depending on the data, opens a widget and
requires user action, or simply opens the widget, triggers a timer
event, which, among other, closes the widget. This is repeated several
times, like 30 times in a second.

This is working well, but when every widget is closed by the timer
event, it creates a unpleasing flickering as the Workbench (or whatever
application I have running), constantly get and loose the focus. Is it
possible to realize a widget without giving it the focus?

In case someone is tempted by the fix "don't use the timer, don't use
the widget", I can't really... it would be too much work for just an
cosmetic problem, as most required functions used widget_control et al.

Thanks in advance if you have any idea!

Ah, one more thing, the program should run under windows and linux.. I
haven't checked yet if this effect also happens on linux.

Jean
