@RobW@iosdev.space I’m guessing (but haven’t verified) that controls get focusable by default, and this modifier is more for creating custom controls that wouldn’t normally be focusable, or for making parent components non-focusable, and sub-components focusable.
I’ve never needed to use the focusable modifier explicitly, personally.
