Thanks, but it won’t help. If I type in “23” my handler adds a dot to it and the text becomes “23.”

Your code sets the “23” selected and caret is there (not after the added dot as it should be), the thing is that it should show 23. and caret after that, and no selection.

var fm = getFocusManager();
fm.setFocus(MyTextField);
Selection.setSelection(0,MyTextField.text.length)

Mika,

 

Have you looked at:

 

Selection.setSelection(stringLength,stringLength)

Hi,

I'm trying to set the caret to the end of the textfield. I have a keyUp event handler that adds the dot "." automatically for the text entered. The problem is that when the dot is added by actionscript the caret stays behind the added dot while typing, so the dot gets misplaced and the typing comes out wrong. How can I position the caret AFTER the autoinserted dot? I've tried to fool around with the Selection class functions but none of it seems to help..

 

Here is an example of the handler I'd like to use:

 

function onKeyUp( event )

            {

            if( MyTextField.text.length == 2 )

                        {                      

                        MyTextField.text = MyTextField.text + ".";

                        // HOW TO POSITION THE CARET HERE SO THAT IT COMES OUT LIKE THIS ON TEXTFIELD: "myenteredtext.CARET_BLINKING_HERE???

                        }

            }

 

-Mika
