It has been referred to in a couple of past threads with no solution, so I am asking again.

Basically if you have a combo box in a floating window, once it has been selected, if you click off the floating window, you can't click back on the combo box to make it active until you have first clicked/ activated some other object in the floating window. If the combo box is not the active control when you click off the floating window you can click the combo box to make it active. RB2005-2009 Mac OSX Tiger and Leopard.

I have tried artificially setting the focus of the window to some other object upon deactivation, but a floating window never receives the deactivation. I have also tried having the window set the focus in the floating window when they are activated, but its activate event also doesn't fire other than when it is first opened.

Looking for suggestions,
