Focus window is a screen on which currently activated input field (temporary in-
put field) is registered. (In case there are no active input fields on windows even
when multiple windows are displayed, it means that there are no focus win-
dows.)
When the data is input from touch switches or bar code reader, the data is input
to a temporary input field on a focus window.
The focus window is determined by the following rules.
When only one window has an active temporary input field.
The window with an active input field is a focus window.
When there are multiple temporary input fields that are active.
The one at the front of all the windows that have active input fields is a focus
window.
Example:
Character string
input field
Temporary input field 1
Temporary input field 2

Input from a character string key on window 1
Input from a character string key on window 2
