Set the phrase to ‘*’, then enter trips the response. You can then use code in the response to check the users input and if you want to go round again, you can prompt them otherwise int.exit() 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. :-/
