Question

The key event is not listened by my Flex app. Since it is really simple code, I cannot understand where the problem is…

init() {

    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, escHandler);

}

private function escHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void {

    debugF.text = "ESC pressed";


}

thanks

I’m not sure I fully understand your question, but a lot of the user interaction events (including keyboard) are disabled when Flash is in fullscreen mode. Escape is automatically handled by Flash to exit out of fullscreen. I don’t believe it will be passed to your listeners.
