Allow scrolling without focus on list view?

So, I’ve been working with the List View widget for almost all day and I’m using it for a context menu of sorts, think Arma 3.

The issue is, when I scroll on the scroll wheel it doesn’t go up or down the list of options. I assume this has to do with the ui not being in focus, but I could be wrong.

Is there any way to make the widget always in focus, even if its not meant to be clicked on?

I cant tell you a direct answer but I’ve had similar problems and my workaround was to send input from the character (or whoever has input) to the widget either through event dispatch, interface, or just direct reference.

I’ve been doing things this way just as a means to avoid input fighting. I dunno if its a best practice or not. but for me it works fine at least.

I’ve actually tried that… which wouldn’t be a big issue if there was actually a function to scroll up or down in the List View widget, which it seems to be lacking. Do you know if there’s a way to control that input?

i havent used list views. i just took a quick look at what nodes exist though and saw this:

maybe you could increment a number to scroll that way?

im just guessing, hopefully somebody may actually know something.
