Hi All: I'm trying to do a simple drawing program, something like http://artpad.art.com/artpad/painter/, in which I primarily want to be able to draw freehand lines and be able to add text. I want to emulate the general text tool functionality where I click the text tool icon, click on the canvas and start typing.
I had tried the approach of addEventListener() for a key up event which which I had a hard time of of getting focus (tried both the application and the canvas), but when I did get focus, I discovered that that the space button activates a button click of the last selected button. A google search shows someone else discovered this accessibility feature. Is there a different route than the addEventListener() for key up events that I should be taking to get this sort of behavior? Thanks Forrest
