AvalonDock focus LayoutDocument content

Question

When a LayoutDocument is created and shown on screen, it gets the focus. I want to be able to put the focus on my content inside this document.

How can I set the focus of my content inside the document after the document is shown?

I have tried a few things like ILayoutUpdateStrategy.AfterInsertDocument, but the document isn't on the screen at this time. I can't find a hook that happens after the document is actually shown on screen.

I am not sure if you were able to find an answer to this but what I did was in my XAML I added this. Loaded="Window_Loaded" and then in my code behind it will set focus to my text box.

That totally worked. I swear I tried everything, but apparently missed doing on the UserControl directly. – Josh Close Mar 04 '15 at 04:03
