You can use the FocusManager.FocusedElement attached property for this purpose. Here’s a piece of code that set the focus to TxtB by default. <StackPanel Orientation=”Vertical” FocusManager.FocusedElement=”{Binding ElementName=TxtB}”> <TextBox x:Name=”TxtA” Text=”A” /> <TextBox x:Name=”TxtB” Text=”B” /> </StackPanel> You can also use TxtB.Focus() in your code-behind if you don’t want to do this in XAML.
For Windows Forms you can control cursor position (and selection) with txtbox.SelectionStart and txtbox.SelectionLength properties. If you want to set caret to end try this: txtbox.SelectionStart = txtbox.Text.Length; txtbox.SelectionLength = 0; For WPF see this question.
The text box has a TabIndex of 0 and TabStop set to true. This means that the control will be given focus when the form is displayed. You can either give another control the 0 TabIndex (if there is one) and give the text box a different tab index (>0), or set TabStop to false … Read more

Unfortunately this feature is severely under-documented in the Tkinter world, though it is quite sufficiently documented in the Tk world. Even though it’s not documented well, it has everything you need to do validation without resorting to bindings or tracing variables, or modifying the … Read more
This is a “feature” of Firefox which remembers form input values across page refreshes. To fix this behavior, you simply set autocomplete=”off” on the form containing the inputs, or just directly to the input. This stops autocomplete from working and prevents the browser from remembering the state of input fields. Alternatively, you can just “hard-refresh” … Read more
in .NET Framework 4 just Keyboard.ClearFocus();
The bold property of the font itself is read only, but the actual font property of the text box is not. You can change the font of the textbox to bold as follows: textBox1.Font = new Font(textBox1.Font, FontStyle.Bold); And then back again: textBox1.Font = new Font(textBox1.Font, FontStyle.Regular);
You can make yourself a pure XAML approach by creating an attached behaviour. Something like this: public static class InputBindingsManager { public static readonly DependencyProperty UpdatePropertySourceWhenEnterPressedProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached( “UpdatePropertySourceWhenEnterPressed”, typeof(DependencyProperty), typeof(InputBindingsManager), new PropertyMetadata(null, OnUpdatePropertySourceWhenEnterPressedPropertyChanged)); static InputBindingsManager() { } public static void SetUpdatePropertySourceWhenEnterPressed(DependencyObject dp, DependencyProperty value) { dp.SetValue(UpdatePropertySourceWhenEnterPressedProperty, value); } public static DependencyProperty GetUpdatePropertySourceWhenEnterPressed(DependencyObject dp) { … Read more
You can add the following code: this.ActiveControl = null; //this = form
$(document).ready(function(){ $(‘#TextBoxId’).keypress(function(e){ if(e.keyCode==13) $(‘#linkadd’).click(); }); });
