I need JTextField to be editable after calling requestFocus() on it's parent container

Question

I have the following window. I need to be able to edit the text when I click on the JTextField.

Explanation: JTextField is inside a JComponent called PriorityPanel. When I click on JTextField, it calls this.requestFocus(); meaning that the PriorityPanel will gain focus. This way I cannot edit the text of the TextField.
In comparison, I can still modify the value of JSlider even if it bahaves exactly the same way. When I click on JSlider, the PriorityPanel will gain focus.

The described problem is in this part:

//constructor
public PriorityPanel(Priority p, int row) {
    this.Slider = new JSlider(JSlider.HORIZONTAL, 0, 100, 100);
    this.model = p;
    this.rowName = row;
    this.TextField = new JTextField(model.getTitle());
    setLayout(new GridLayout(1, 2));     
    add(TextField);
    add(Slider);
    addFocusListener(new FocusAdapter() {
        @Override
        public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
            TextField.setBackground(new Color(220, 220, 255));
            Slider.setBackground(new Color(220, 220, 255));
            JPriorityEditor.this.selectedRow = rowName;
        }

        @Override
        public void focusLost(FocusEvent e) {
            TextField.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
            Slider.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
        }
    });
    Slider.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
        @Override
        public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
            requestFocus();
        }
    });
    TextField.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
        @Override
        public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
            requestFocus();
        }
    });
    //atc
}

Answer 1

From the looks of things, you are trying to modify the state of the parent container when one of the child components becomes focused.

Instead of trying to add a focus listener to the parent container, which is going to cause you some considerable havoc, try adding a single FocusListener to all the child components, for example...

FocusAdapter fa = new FocusAdapter() {
    @Override
    public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
        TextField.setBackground(new Color(220, 220, 255));
        Slider.setBackground(new Color(220, 220, 255));
        JPriorityEditor.this.selectedRow = rowName;
    }

    @Override
    public void focusLost(FocusEvent e) {
        TextField.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
        Slider.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
    }
});
Slider.addFocusListener(fa);
TextField.addFocusListener(fa);

Now, I would be taking a peek at the KeyBoardFocusManager#getFocusOwner and back tracking it's container hierarcy when ever focusLost is called to try and determine if the component who now has focus is a child of mine...
