Hi everybody,
I've been reading this list for a month or more, and picked up stacks of
good stuff - big thanks to all the regular contributors.
I've finally got a question that's niggling me enough to post:
Is there any way to tell whether the text cursor is inside a given
(editable) text member on the stage, or indeed to set that member to active
(ie move the cursor into it)? I'm thinking of focus/blur functionality in
javascript.
Obviously I can get key and mouse events, but these are not the only ways
the cursor can be moved. (eg setting the editable of the currently active
text member/sprite to False bumps the cursor to the next highest one in the
score (but not always)).
Setting the editable of _all_ other textmembers present to False is a brute
force way of achieving the second, but even then, seems not always to work.
I naively assumed there would be a text member property for this - something
like textMember.focus - but it seems not... Please enlighten me.
James
