[BUG]: SetFocus() Doesn't Work on Any Creative Kit Controls

[sperry1625]

Describe the bug I get an error when I try to SetFocus() to a CreativeKit control. The control is not in a gallery or in another container. It is grouped with other controls, but a group is not a container.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Drop a picker, panel, or other CreativeKit control on a Screen
2. Drop a label on the screen
3. Group the controls from step 1 and step 2 (This is not necessary, but it is what I have done)
4. Drop a button on the same screen
5. In the OnSelect() for the button add a SetFocus() to one of the controls added in step 1
6. See error

Expected behavior No error and the SetFocus() to work

Screenshots

Additional context This works on any regular controls that are in the same place.

Thanks for the great suggestion. SetFocus() requires additional work that was not initially scoped. I will validate whether SetFocus is supported for components.

Were you able to try out the SetFocus implementation provided in docs? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/guidance/creator-kit/setfocus

@sperry1625 just wanted to follow up and check in - did the SetFocus using a variable work for you?

@denise-msft, I have to retest. I believe IO have tried the SetFocus as described and it is not supported in all controls.

I will retest my scenario and let you know.
