"Can't activate a tool that is not visible." exception using F Key with a textbox tool
posted

I'm using a Ribbon Bar and have some F keys set to launch some items.  The tools that are buttons work as expected (they will launch the function).  I'm having a problem with a textbox tool.  If the ribbon is on the tab that the tool is on, it works as expected (sets focus to the tool).  If the ribbon is on a different tab it will change to the tab containing the tool, and then gets the exception "Can't activate a tool that is not visible." and does not set focus to the tool.  Any ideas?
