How to tell if a docked EditorWindow got focus?

Questions & Answers

Docked editor windows don’t seem to get OnFocus/OnLostFocus events as you switch between tabs. Is there a workaround anyone would like to share? :slight_smile:

There might be a dirty workaround:

class DemoEditorWindow : EditorWindow {

    private bool _focused;

    private void OnFocus() {
        _focused = true;
    }

    private void OnLostFocus() {
        _focused = false;
    }

    private void Update() {
        // Did get focus?
        if (this == focusedWindow) {
            if (!_focused)
                OnFocus();
        }
        else if (_focused) {
            OnLostFocus();
        }
    }

}

Warning: Not tested! but you should hopefully get my general theory:
