You can push a fake FocusOut event for the previous object having focus back
onto the X event queue.
If you are using translations to define the user-callbacks, you could redefine
the fire() action procedure for OI_menu_cell to do this.
But a better way (according to Tom LaStrange), would be to send the fake
FocusOut event from a pre-popup callback bound to the pulldown menus in the
main menu.
Here is a code frag which may help you get started:
if (conp->has_focus() && is_main_menu() && connection()->last_focus()) {
XEvent event;
event.xfocus.type = FocusOut;
event.xfocus.send_event = False;
event.xfocus.display = connection()->display();
event.xfocus.window = connection()->last_focus()->x_window_id();
event.xfocus.mode = NotifyNormal;
event.xfocus.detail = NotifyDetailNone;
XPutBackEvent(connection()->display(), &event);
}
good luck,
-Milo
