You can easily build your own context-sensitive help by listening
for the keyDown event and using the FocusManager's getFocus call to retrieve
the control in focus.
Here is a simple app that can get you started:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"; xmlns="*"
width="700" keyDown="handleKey(event)">
<mx:Script>
function handleKey(event)
{
msg.text += "handleKey code " + Key.getCode() + " target " +
event.target +
" focus " + getFocusManager().getFocus() + "\n";
}
</mx:Script>
<mx:HBox>
<mx:Text text="lkajrlekja rekl "/>
<mx:RadioButton label="bobbe"/>
</mx:HBox>
<mx:TextInput keyDown="handleKey(event)"/>
<mx:NumericStepper/>
<mx:Button/>
<mx:TextArea width="90%" height="70%" id="msg"/>
</mx:Application>

As i know in flex,i think this type of requirement we can't implement
in flex application.And this is very useful functionality.If they
support in future this in flex very much useful!!
