As I mentioned in a previous message, be careful when finding APIs to work with 'focus'. focusView is used to determine which view has "window and coordinate system" focus (see lockFocus).
In order to see if a particular view is the first responder, check out the recent replies to this thread. I believe someone mentioned that you should not only check the owning window's firstResponder, but also if that window is currently key.
