Re: [flexcoders] Re: Capturing ENTER key in a Numeric Stepper
Hi Andrew.
Can you trap the ENTER (keyCode = 13) on a Numeric Stepper? I've been
failing to do this... :(
When a user presses the ENTER key, I want to perform an operation, such as a
search... So I'm thinking I need to somehow trap the ENTER key and dispatch
a custom event.
Mmmm... Any ideas?
Cheers,
Nick

Hello,
I've got a form with a few fields on, one being a numeric stepper. On the
TextInput, I can test the enter key being pressed using the enter event
but there doesn't appear to be an equivalent for the numericstepper...

I would probably have an event handler to deal with ALL keystrokes, and within that have a switch statement. One case of the switch statement would be case '13': var searchValue:int = myNumericStepper.value; doTheSearch(searchValue); break; So when the enter key click is captured, the code goes and looks at the number stepper and sends whatever its current value is to the search function. a --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Nick Middleweek n...@... wrote: Hi Andrew.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Capturing ENTER key in a Numeric Stepper
Andrew - cheers. My problem was that I am working with a custom Numeric
Stepper, I had extended the base control it so it could support null entries
and to be quite restrictive with the inputs... 0-9, delete key, backspace,
etc... I forgot to include ENTER.. doh! :-)
After your post, I decided to go back to basics and testing and
trace(event.keyCode.toString()) on the keydownHander...
Cheers, it's all sorted. I'm now firing out my own FlexEvent.ENTER from my
custom numberstepper.
nice! :-)
