Is there a way to detect/set focus on TWL windows?

look at Widget.requestKeyboardFocus(). The widget needs to be part of the GUI tree (eg getGUI() needs to return a GUI instance).
If you want to remove the keyboard focus from all child widgets call Widget.requestKeyboardFocus(null).

that method is protected:

protected boolean requestKeyboardFocus(Widget child)
A child requests keyboard focus.

Also is there a way to unfocus an entire windows (widget)?

When I first start TWL, nothing is focused (which is good). Is there a way to get back to that non-focused state?

Just call giveupKeyboardFocus() on a widget. It will still remember which of it's children had focus if you call requestKeyboardFocus() on it the next time.

ok, got it. If I call give giveupKeyboardFocus() on the DesktopArea() it "un focuses" all windows which is what I want. Thanks!
