I have a nested series of linear layouts in my xml code. I want the first child of the parent (also a linear layout) to take focus. It does this if I set focusable to true. I would also like pass the focus onto the children of this layout (in order to invoke their state-lists). However it does not pass any of it's focus onto it's children, even if they are set to focusable. Any ideas how to do this? Thanks
