Has anybody else had problems with detecting if event.shiftKey is true? It
seems ever since I upgraded to 2.0.1 I've lost the ability to see if the
user has shift, crtl'd, or alted a key while clicking on something. Below is
a function I wrote a good amount of time ago that worked for the longest
period of time and it seems that it stopped working just as soon as I
upgraded.
// GLOBAL OPEN LINK FUNCTION
public function openLink(event:MouseEvent, linkURL:String):void {
trace(event.shiftKey);
if(event.shiftKey){
trace(" You ShiftClicked!!!!");
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(linkURL);
navigateToURL(request, "_blank");
}
}
That function traces false every time no matter what you got down on the
keyboard. Anyone have ideas or similiar problems?
