In Flex, how can one set the TextInput to "unselected" (which mean not only focus is out but also, that if you text on your keyboard, the TextInput won't be changed) on the event of pressing the Enter key? I know how to change the component that has the focus using the FocusManager, but I don't want to change the component that has focus, I just want this one component not to be selected.

I am a Flex newbie and I am testing a little application that simulates a cart. (It is based on a nice sample by Farata Systems' Yakov Fain).Note: I am using the beta of Flash Builder 4 to code the application.Here you have a link to the screenshot:Screenshot(Sorry I can't insert the image of the screenshot right here since stackoverflow doesn't allow new users to use image tags.)The application is very simple. You type a product in the TextInput control and then click on the "Add to cart" button to add it to the "cart" which is represented by the TextArea at the bottom.
That works ok.The problem is that I also want the user to be able to keep adding items to the cart without having to click on the "Add to cart" button. So, I added code to handle the enter event of the Textput by calling the same handler function triggered by the "Add to cart" Click event.If you type some content and then click the "Add to cart" button, the TextInput control receives the focus and the cursor, so you can type again. However, if you hit enter, instead of clicking the button, the TextInput control keeps focused and you can see the cursor beam, but you can not enter text until you click elsewhere and come back to the control.Below you can see the relevant part of the code, with the definition of the component that groups the three controls at the top (Label, TextInput, Button).
When my focus is inside the input text field, pressing CTRL+ENTER works but ENTER does not.Pressing Enter when my focus is anywhere BUT the input text field works just fine..My intention is to detect if ENTER key was pressed after the user fills out the field, but it seems to only work for CTRL+ENTER
I'm creating a Flash instant messaging application (through XMPP protocol) and run into a problem. It isn't that important but I was quite upset that I wasn't able to solve it and I want to know if their is a solution =D
I have a TextArea chat input and a button to send the text, the TextArea is multiline and so captures the Enter key to jump one line... What I need is to send the message with the Enter key and jump with a Ctrl+Enter combination... My ideas were to disable the bubbling of the Enter key, trap it, and then manually assign the Ctrl+Enter combination to jumping the line in TextArea but couldn't find how to do all this...
OK, this is starting to annoy me pretty intensely. For some reason the esc key shortcuts are not functioning, and nothing I do seems to be able to restore them. Even ticking the 'Esc Key Shortcuts' option in the actions panel dropdown menu has falied to make it possible for me to do as much as type 'esc-s-t' to bring up 'stop()'
This may be a total Noob question but I can't seem to get the Flash Debugger to work. I'm trying to test a flash file that interacts with some PHP script. I'm running MAMP under OS X 10.5.8 I've downloaded the Debugger Version of the Flash 10 plug-in and installed it. Created a the mm.cfg in /Library/Application Support/Macromedia with the following content:

This script is based on one of the KIRUPA.com slide show codes and I'm trying to add CSS so I can control how my description of the images will look like.

movie clips have defined functions for rollOut, rollOver and Release. On Release rollover function is set to null (on.Rollover {bla, bla, bla movieclip.onRollOut = null}.Is there a way to re-enable this function?
I have 4 buttons that I have made invisible. After a random time, one of 4 buttons should randomly become visible.That button then will lead to another frame.How do I enable one of them randomly (and make it visible at the same time)?
I bought a license for a 3D Carousel component HERE. What I'm trying to do with it is load movie clips when the user clicks an image using a lightbox effect that I built in Flash.Everything is working fine except that when the movie clip loads on top of the site, I want the buttons of the carousel component to be disabled so the user can't load another movie until the one active is closed.I know how to disable a button, which I'm assuming would work here, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the button instance names out of the component to disable them.[code]Does anyone know if I could modify this event to give me button instance names instead of obj.id? Or, failing that.if there is a way to just disable the whole damn thing?
Is it possible to tab enable the href links in html formated text that is displayed in a TextField.htmlText property? I don't necessarily want to tab enable the entire text field, just the href links
I do a lot of multimedia presentations for events/awards/summits using flash where I have to assign numbers/letters to call certain screens (eg. a speaker screen) at any time, and I understand Adobe have disabled the keypress functions entirely when publishing out of CS5.
Is it at all possible to bypass this and allow the key presses to be enabled? Or is this pretty much a like it or lump it it doesnt work anymore issue.
The only work around I have been able to work out is to save down to CS4 and publish from that, which kind of seems a bit silly and backwards.
i have done a project and i found out that i could'nt see the top part of my project as it is too long. So i was thinking of using UIScrollBar to enable me to scroll to the top. But the problem is how do i use UIScrollBar?
I have two functions, I need one that of them at the start would be disabled and after decent amount of time or when x = 1000, function would be enabled and become active. How can I do that?
I'm using BlazeDS 3 in my application. The dependencies for the BlazeDS libraries are downloaded from a public maven repository. However I can't enable the RDS support on the server because of some missing library. Does anyone know where this class is located: flex.rds.server.servlet.FrontEndServlet.
The Accessibility best practices for Flex page from Adobe website list four strategies to enable accessibility :
[Code]...
I test if the accessibility is enabled by checking the value of Accessibility.active, which is always false in my sample application containing only a datagrid and some buttons, using the four above strategies. As I'm new to Flex, I don't really know where else I could search to enable it, and no, Accessibility.active = true; isn't a solution, as it's a read-only property
I am building a flex app for mobile. I am running my app with configuration 'run on device' but when I connect to my device through usb I don't see my application launching.
I would like to enable the (Open in a new tab) option when a user right clicks a mx:LinkButton, take the address that linkbutton is supposed to go to and allow the user to click on (open in a new tab) and get to that address in a new tab. Is there an easy way to do that.
When the user gets to a certain frame, one of 4 buttons should randomly become visible. That button then should lead to another frame.How do I enable one of them randomly on entry (and make them visible at the same time)?
i have been pulling m hair out here trying to work out how to toggle on and off states on my buttons. Once a user clicked one it fades and disables ok as I want but i also want it to enable and fade back up again when they select another button. Below is my code:
