Huh, It's funny the obvious things you forget. dumb de dumb dumb.
Thanks, I will just let the users know that little quirk and they can have an option. Thanks Alex, PS, This is just randomness but, in my mind I would assume that since a mouseOver event is a MouseEvent, that logically it should pass the sate consistently. That is why I wasted an hour with my code. ;-) Mike On 5/2/07, Alex Harui <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Mike, Yeah, we're discussing the player keyboard API internally at Adobe. You can always listen for keyUp/keyDown on the systemManager and keep track of SHIFT, but if somebody is really mean and holds down SHIFT while outside the app then you're out of luck. -Alex ------------------------------ *From:* [email protected] [mailto:flexcompone [EMAIL PROTECTED] *On Behalf Of *Daniel Freiman *Sent:* Wednesday, May 02, 2007 3:23 PM *To:* [email protected] *Subject:* Re: [flexcomponents] Shift Key :: MouseOver There are workarounds because this type of thing is a common problem. Search the archives of this list and you should find something. Solutions with problems with keyboard events may be similar enough to help you. I know I've pointed people to resources on issues similar to this. I'll see if I can find them later tonight when i get back to my computer. - Dan Freiman nondocs <http://nondocs.blogspot.com> On 5/2/07, Michael Schmalle <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: > > > There is discussion about providing some other way to determine the > state of shiftkeys so if you file it, it might not get fixed. > > So are you saying I'm out of lick right now?
