No, you just set up a StringValidator for each, and use FlexLib's AdvancedForm
to invoke them

Over out.

Is this a technical or a grandmas-complaining-about-managers forum ? :)
You can probably add capturing phase listeners to the SystemManager
and filter out the events your managers dont like ;)

This is just a meaningless statement. You can't enable everything for
everyone in any possible way.
First, good software does whatever it is supposed to do.

I have to say that the solution to this problem is data validation, or
simply fixing what sure looks like a bug in TextInput. You can't disable
something as good for users as copy and paste simply because as a coder
you're too lazy to validate the input.
Well, you can, but your customers will

Umm, yes ?
Cut and paste is one of the great GUI tools, and everyone expects it. Witness
the poor UX on (say) the iPhone which inexplicably has no support for that.

Well, sometimes you have to restrict users from doing something.
Besides all possible greatest technologies available.
And yes, managing people is great as well (as per Josh's comment).
I wonder how it is going to be enforced. KGB?

Dmitri.

Yes, Tom, you are right. As usual.

And I totally agree with you; I would get mad myself using it.

So now they'll have to retype them, thus being even less productive !
Gotta love clients :-)

Tom,
The user can still tab to the control and then use the keyboard to
highlight
and cut/paste.
Well then you intercept the setFocus() and unset it.
Did you read where I said I was wrong?

Why do you think there is a restrict property on the TextInput
control? Why there is displayAsPassword property?
Do you need any more clues? Or use-cases how you call it.
