Question

I have a restricted editable textfield in flash like this:

oField.restrict = "0-9";

To capture changes I attach this listener:

oField.onChanged = function(){
    trace(1);
};

Is there a listener to capture the event when a restricted character is entered (e.g. the event when the key “a” is pressed – the field does not change, so onChanged does not fire).

Thanks for help.

Answer 1

add a “key down” listener to the stage or textfield. see if that fires…
