Set current window focus

[pjsmith]

Hi,

I realise it is likely unsupported, but does anyone know the 'proper' way to set the current chart to the active window, i.e., with focus? In normal windows forms, it's just be form.Activate(), but I can't see to find such a function for the chartcontrol.

Thanks.

Thanks for your post pjsmith,

You are correct that this is topic begins to escape the context of support we offer. To provide a hint, ChartControl.OwnerChart represents the Chart window that owns the ChartControl object.
