26\wxheading{Remarks}
27
28A top-level window (a dialog or frame) receives an activate event when is
29being activated or deactivated. This is indicated visually by the title
30bar changing colour, and a subwindow gaining the keyboard focus.
31
32An application is activated or deactivated when one of its frames becomes activated,
33or a frame becomes inactivate resulting in all application frames being inactive. (Windows only)

35Please note that usually you should call \helpref{event.Skip()}{wxeventskip} in
36your handlers for these events as not doing so can result in strange effects,
37especially on Mac platform.
