Code that illustrates the behavior I'm trying to avoid:

stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, stageOffHandler);

// embed code is a dynamic textfield
embedCode.text = 'Here is somer text';

embedCode.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, selectAllEmbedCode);

function selectAllEmbedCode(e:MouseEvent) {
        e.target.setSelection(0, e.target.text.length);
}

function stageOffHandler(e:Event) {
        // I don't want this to fire on RIGHT_CLICK
        trace('mouse is off stage or right mouse button clicked');
        embedCode.visible = false;
        
}

Subject: [Flashcoders] right-click triggers MOUSE_LEAVE?

I want to allow users to copy text from a dynamic text field. When I 
right-click on the textfield the MOUSE_LEAVE event fires (which hides the 
textfield  - I intend for MOUSE_LEAVE to hide the textfield).

Googling, I find no results of someone else experiencing the problem I'm 
assuming this isn't the expected behavior but am at a loss for looking what is 
causing this in my code, there's no RIGHT_CLICK listener and from within a 
class, I have

_stage.stage.addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_LEAVE, videoOffHandler);

where _stage is a reference to the Document class.
