I don't understand the problem. Can you please try and better explain what you're trying to do, and then what is not working? Give code examples as well.

Posters don't have an itemSelected property.&nbsp; I think you need to use a posterGrid with one poster.https://developer.roku.com/docs/references/scenegraph/list-and-grid-nodes/postergrid.md

I'm still not entirely sure what your exact issue is, but I'll try to answer as best I can.Unlike web-based apps, Roku SceneGraph nodes do not have events for when a specific element is clicked for most situations. Items in the scene can have focus, and parent items also technically have focus and are "in the focus chain".Completely separate from that, there's a per-component `onKeyEvent` function that intercepts remote button down/up events. You have to write your own logic to determine what item has focus whenever a key event fires.&nbsp;Here's a small example of an app with some simple focus management.&nbsp;&nbsp;You can see this simple example app here on github:&nbsp;https://github.com/rokucommunity/sample-projects/tree/master/simple-focus&nbsp;But here's the code as well:&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
&lt;component name="MainScene" extends="Scene"&gt;
  &lt;script type="text/brightscript" uri="MainScene.brs" /&gt;

&lt;interface&gt;
    &lt;field id="appExit" type="bool" alwaysnotify="true" value="false" /&gt;
  &lt;/interface&gt;

&lt;children&gt;
    &lt;rectangle id="focusRing" color="0xFF69B4FF" width="310" height="310" translation="[95,95]" /&gt;

&lt;Rectangle id="red" color="0xFF0000FF" width="300" height="300" translation="[100,100]" /&gt;
    &lt;Rectangle id="green" color="0x00FF00FF" width="300" height="300" translation="[500,100]" /&gt;
    &lt;Rectangle id="blue" color="0x000000FF" width="300" height="300" translation="[900,100]" /&gt;
    &lt;Rectangle id="black" color="0x0000FFFF" width="300" height="300" translation="[1300, 100]" /&gt;
  &lt;/children&gt;
&lt;/component&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;sub init()
    'get notified anytime the focus changes
    m.focusRing = m.top.findNode("focusRing")

m.nodesToFocus = [
        m.top.findNode("red"),
        m.top.findNode("green"),
        m.top.findNode("blue")
        m.top.findNode("black")
    ]
    m.nodesToFocus[0].setFocus(true)
    m.top.observeField("focusedChild", "onFocusedChildChange")
end sub

'draw a focus ring around the focused element
sub onFocusedChildChange()
    print "focus has changed"
    focusedChild = m.top.focusedChild

'if we have a focusedChild and it's not the main scene (which has no ID)
    if focusedChild &lt;&gt; invalid and focusedChild.id &lt;&gt; "" then
        print "Currently focused element: " + focusedChild.id
        m.focusRing.translation = [
            focusedChild.translation[0] - 5,
            focusedChild.translation[1] - 5
        ]
    end if
end sub

'Set focus to the next sibling in the specified direction
sub focusNextSibling()
    nodeToFocus = invalid

'focus the next child
    for i = 0 to m.nodesToFocus.count() - 1
        child = m.nodesToFocus[i]
        'skip the focusRing
        if child.id = "focusRing"
            continue for
        end if

if child.hasFocus()
            nodeToFocus = m.nodesToFocus[i + 1]
            exit for
        end if
    end for
    'if we have no node to focus, then focus the first node that's not the focusRing
    if nodeToFocus = invalid
        nodeToFocus = m.nodesToFocus[0]
    end if
    nodeToFocus.setFocus(true)
end sub

function onKeyEvent(key as string, press as boolean) as boolean
    'only handle key up events
    if press &lt;&gt; true
        return false
    end if

'simple focus management for now, just move forwards or backwards
    if key = "up" or key = "right" or key = "down" or key = "left"
        focusNextSibling()
        return true
    end if

if key = "OK" then
        print "Item was selected", m.focusedChild.id
        return true
    end if
    return false
end function&nbsp;&nbsp;
