I have a TextArea with undo/redo which is performed via ctrl+z, ctrl+y. My app is a mobile app with no cntrl on the soft keyboard so I want to make an undo and a redo button which simulates the keypresses. How do you simulate keys in Flex?

I'm creating a virtual keyboard for a touchscreen Flex app and i'm trying to simulate a key press by dispatching a KeyboardEvent. I've written a handler function to listen for the event and act accordingly. So far so good but it's starting to get complicated as i have to manage the focused textInputs (easy), the cursor position in those fields (not to so easy), etc.Now, if only there was a way to actually dispatch a KeyboardEvent that Flex would actually interpret as a genuine key press all those issues would be gone.

View 4 RepliesIn order to make something work correctly, I need to simulate the user clicking on an image which doubles as a button and calls yet another function. I've tried simply calling the function, but it didn't work... for some reason, it only seems to work when the user clicks the button. Is it possible to 1) simulate clicks and 2) make the application think that the user clicks on a specific image?
Full story - My application (a scheduling application) allows the user to replace one student with another. In order to do this, the user can bring up a list of available students. Once the list is presented, and the user selects a new students name, that new name is supposed to replace the old name. Instead, the text box simply goes blank. Now, if I click a image (which acts like a button) that increases the length of a that scheduled activity by one day, the name appears for whatever reason. I've tried simply calling the function that increases the number of days, but it doesn't work. For some reason, it would appear that only the user clicking the image (button) seems to make the new user name show up in the text box. This is why I would like to simulate the user clicking the "increase by 1 day" image.
How can i make it so a when you press a button it starts a countdown but every other press dosent reset it?

View 2 RepliesI was wondering if Flash 8 is able to simulate a button being pressed on the keyboard. I know it is able to detect if a button is being pressed by the user, but this is slightly different.

I'm making a screensaver which includes a game, when the .swf file is converted to screensaver format the only way to exit is to press Escape.
I was wondering if there is any way to simulate a keypress (Escape) when the user clicks a button so that I can also have Exit buttons?

I want the press button to detect the last button pressed and if the shapes match, make them do something...obviously. I think I'm going at it the wrong way. I need to stick a "triange" id into the button/mc then if compares that and then if there is a match works then... right?

View 3 RepliesI'm loading in 5 jpegs from an external file using "loadMovie" and i have 5 corresponding buttons (1-5) to load them with.
I want to change the jpeg the button loads in depending whether a separate navigation button has been pressed -
i.e.
navigation buttons:
-motorbike pics
-car pics
-lorry pics
If a user clicked on "car pics" then the loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "car1.jpg", "car2.jpg" and so on...
similarly if the user clicked on "lorry pics", the same loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "lorry1.jpg" and "lorry2.jpg"
I'm working on a flex mobile project now. I've created a StageWebView and call function loadString()[URL]..
It's a simple sample that if you click on the bookmark and you can get access to it.
But I want to put the content in the tag into a spark list. And get the same result when I click the list which needs some kind of simulation of a click in a webView.
here is my code,

i have a set of buttons cranked out from and XML file. how can i emulate, in code, a press on one of those buttons? i'd like to 'press' one of them for an initial state so that the list it controls will load first off instead of waiting for the person to click it manually and THEN show the list it's connected to. thing is, the first loaded list is going to be random, so i need to 'press' what on another day/load would be a button that the user would press themselves.
in other words, i have 3 buttons. on random, i have to 'press', say button 2, to start. users can press 1 or 3 and then 2 again if they like. another time, it's button 1 that gets 'pressed' on load, etc. make sense? i have a sneaking suspicion it might be easy... or stupidly convoluted.
If you know Flex, you probably know what the property "includeInLayout" does. If not, this property make the parent of your component disregard the bounds (like width and height) of your component in render their own bounds.Description in reference below:
Specifies whether this component is included in the layout of the parent container. If true, the object is included in its parent container's layout and is sized and positioned by its parent container as per its layout rules. If false, the object size and position are not affected by its parent container's layout http:[url]...
In Flex, for example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute"[code3]...............
