blur()

In a command line interface, where focusable controls exist (think Visual Basic for DOS) to get an idea of the concept, we can't completely blur out of EVERY single control.

Something is always going to ALWAYS need to be accept / capture input, be it a Button or TextField or a Menu or a Tab or Tree. But the concept of the Control component is that it can easily allow focus to shift from one component to the next, and allow those components which extend the Control class to easily display one type of blurred output while accepting input once focused.

In order to guarantee this, blur will locate the forward (or reverse component) and 'select' it instead.

public

canBlur(): *

Returns a boolean which indicates if the Control instance is un-focusable.

public

canFocus(): *

Returns a boolean which indicates if a Control instance is focusable.
