I think you have to implement that functionality yourself. Try using the textInput event to block input to TextArea

Like Ctrl+S,Ctrl+Q,etc. Is it bug? Hi, Ctrl + S is used to save files in most applications. I add the KeyboardEvent Listeners in the TextArea. If the keyCode is Ctrl + S, I want to save the content in the TextArea. When I press Ctrl + S, the TextArea's text is added the signs like □□□□□□□□□( ________________________________ [1])............... Available in the AIR, not Flex. So, is it a bug in Adobe AIR? -- Live Technology in A.J. ─━╋━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━╋━─ .air?air Jordan?air = atmosphere?no,no,no!air = ria = RIA = Rich Internet Applications!
