How can I prevent mouse selecting (and moving caret) with Editable TextField(), this one does not seem to fully work when SELECTING text, but it prevents clicking. I want to keep cursor in place where its going.

protected function handleMouseDEvent(evt:MouseEvent):void { if (evt.type == MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN) { var max : int; max = this.text.length; this.setSelection(max, max) // SET CURSOR POSITION   } }
