Hi I already try that but is not working for me, using your example I also tested this (first calling init() from the initialize and after from the applicationComplete):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute" initialize="init()"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.controls.Alert; import mx.managers.PopUpManager; private function init(): void { addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, watchKey); } private function watchKey(e: KeyboardEvent): void { Alert.show("TEST", "TEST"); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Panel width="100%" height="100%" /> </mx:Application> This is not working for me when I press a key I am not receiving any popup window.
