Hi

(using f_in_box__control)

if I have a movie (Flex, AS3, FlashPlayer9) with some text boxes, I cannot navigate within the text using the arrow keys.
This works with FlashPlayerControl as expected.

Thank you for your question.

FlashPlayerControl implemented IsInputKey method (the implementation always returns true), f_in_box__control doesn't implement this method. That's why TAB doesn't work properly.

For some movies, TAB should be handle by a f_in_box__control, for others, f_in_box__control must not handle TAB. The same for ENTER, LEFT ARROW, RIGHT ARROW etc.

We are ready to include some property / method / event that specify what keys should be processed by a f_in_box__control. What do you think about the following implementation: we will include the event IsInputKey, and if your movie should handle TAB itself, you just handle this event and return true if passed key is TAB. I think, that will be enough to resolve this problem...

With current f_in_box__control version, you can create derived class from f_in_box__control and override IsInputKey method. But I think that additional event would be better solution.

Thanks for the reply

in other words, this event would allow me to decide myself which key inputs shall be passed to Flash and which should be handled by f_in_box__control itself ?

I think that might be a perfect solution. I didn't test yet but will it be the same for f_in_box__form then ?

Thanks and good night

Alex

Small mistake: I meant arrow keys, not TAB, above.

I just have uploaded updated version, how to use new event you can see in the example Sample7_ExternalInterface.

Please try to point out this method of trasfering keys to flash.
I've been seraching for a solution over 2 weeks. And OnIsInputKey is under my nose, even in manual.
I think that users are not well-familiar with this accidental feature.

I'm just trying to help.
