Reset to default 12If you have an element:
<paper-input id="my-input" label="What's on your mind?"></paper-input>
paper-input is a wrapper for business logic and stylish of a more deep-down input element which you can reach through:
document.getElementById('my-input').$.input
To focus, just write:
document.getElementById('my-input').$.input.focus();
<paper-input autofocus></paper-input> will automatically focus immediately, or if you'd prefer to control the timing yourself in Javascript you can use paperInput.$.input.focus().
