Focus not getting refreshed after wxExecute

[starightcircle]

I have custom button in my application and it colour will be modified if click on that. This works fine if a launch some dialog on click of a button
but the button does not loose focus after closing the application launched using wxExecute on click of that button.

This problem persists only in mac not on windows. Right after closing the application. say if a pop a message box button focus will be gone which is what is desired. Anyone know what I might be missing here ? wxExecute is used with wxEXEC_SYNC parameter here

It's a little but unclear to me what the problem is.

I guess you're using wxEVT_ENTER_WINDOW and wxEVT_LEAVE_WINDOW to change the look of the button, but you don't receive a wxEVT_LEAVE_WINDOW when you launch another application?

In that case i would just add another method to the button that checks the mouse-over status again and sets its internal status back to the correct value.

Thats right double max, The custom button is using EVT_ENTER_WINDOW and EVT_LEAVE_WINDOW. Now i understood what the problem,but did not understand the solution part of your answer.

After the button focus goes the application launched and when that application is closed, Should we check the button status in the new method and reset button to normal state as like before the mouse hover?
