What event is initiated when a user switches focus from one object to another in a display list?

The event that is initiated when a user switches focus from one object to another in a display list is the focus event. This event is specifically designed to handle the action of an object gaining focus, indicating that it is the current target for user input. When the focus shifts from one item to another, the focus event is triggered on the new item, allowing developers to manage how objects respond to user interactions.

In the context of a display list in Adobe Animate, focusing may involve various user interface elements like buttons or input fields, which can change behavior depending on whether they are focused or not. The focus event allows developers to implement interactive feedback, such as highlighting an element or enabling specific functionalities tied to the focused object, enhancing user experience.

While the blur event denotes when an object loses focus, the focus change event is not a standard term in the context of Adobe Animate, and there isn't a specific "switch event" associated with focus changes. Understanding these terms helps clarify event-driven programming in user interfaces and aids in creating responsive animations or interactive applications.
