Step back a bit – what are you trying to do? Trip a textEntry response on the enter key? From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Dave Burnett

Subject: [Xerte] Desktop - default action key for text entry?  Did the engine ever get this added?I saw a hint of it in the archives, but nothing definitive. Or some way to trip and interaction without taking the focus away. I set up a textinput in a text icon: icontextentry.txt._height = 20;icontextentry.txt._width = 300;icontextentry.txt.background = true;icontextentry.txt.border = true;icontextentry.txt.type = 'input';icontextentry.txt.selectable = true;icontextentry.txt.maxChars = 40;icontextentry.txt.multiline = 0;myTF = new TextFormat();myTF.font = "Verdana";myTF.size = 14;icontextentry.txt.setNewTextFormat(myTF);setFocus(icontextentry.txt);    Now how do I stop the flow until Enter is pressed? Evaluating keys is no good as it pulls focus from the text input. :-/
