Regular key shortcuts like Command + Q should work even if a control has the focus. But I assume you want to handle key events that are not the regular shortcuts, right? Probably you can try to set your window to be the first responder using something like:

[window makeFirstResponder:window];

It's just an idea, it needs of course some fine-tuning but it should take away the focus from your text box (NSTextField? NSTextView?)

Hi Everyone,
I have a small app that has a bunch of key shortcuts
in it. The problem i am having is that the user has an
activated text box so that the key shortcuts wont
accept the input. I have a button that when pressed i
want to take the cursor focus away from that textbox.
I am already disabling the select and edit features of
the text box when the user presses the button. Is
there a way to draw focus away from that box upon and
action so that the app will accept key shortcuts? Thanks!!!
