Carol Frampton commented on FLEX-33156: --------------------------------------- I believe your change was so you have an extra check in there. Also I was suggesting you use fm for both the "if (fm)" and latter for "fm.getFocus()". var fm:IFocusManager = focusManager; if (fm) { if (isOurFocus(DisplayObject(event.target))) { // When we gain focus, make sure the focused element is visible if (viewport && ensureElementIsVisibleForSoftKeyboard) { var elt:IVisualElement = focusManager.getFocus() as IVisualElement; lastFocusedElement = elt; } } } > focusInHandler() in spark Scroller doesn't null check focusManager property > before using > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLEX-33156 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33156 > Project: Apache Flex > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Spark: Scroller > Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK 4.6 (Release) > Reporter: Roland Zwaga > Fix For: Adobe Flex SDK Next > > Attachments: Scroller.as.patch > > > the focusHandler() method wrongfully assumes that the focusManager is always > a valid instance.
