I have bumped into a similar issue (VFP 7). Two list views, with right mouse activating a popup. The popup has an EXIT option. When the EXIT is selected, a button on the form is "Setfocused".

As long as the user selects EXIT, the behavior is as expected. When an off focus click on the ListView closes the popup we get problems sometimes. The listviews (and a treeview) on the form do not respond (except to node highlite) unless a control on the form is selected and focused [clicked]. Eg, focus is [must be] "pulled" or "pried" away from the listview!

In summary, right clicks are lost and active selection of nodes is lost if a popup, resulting from a right click on a listview, is cleared by an off focus on the listview control. I am considering a work around. Maybey I need to put my listviews in a CONTAINER. Is there a way to detect the popup "lost focus"?. Maybey I'll need to create a form to emulate the popup service.

Have you made any headway?
