Delete does not work [SOLVED]

[Movix 0 Likes (Newbie)]

Hello,

 

I recently purchased the TransForm Manager for AS3.

It was very easy to get it work as i'am quite new to flash programming, very good peace of software

 

In your examples the delete and backspace keys are working fine and deleting the selected items.

 

In my code i set allowDelete to true.

Arrow keys are working fine and the selected clips are moving, so i concluded that the keybord events are correctly propagated to the transformManager object.

 

But the delete or backspace keys are not working.

 

Before starting coding the deletion by my self i thought it would be could to ask here if i missed something.

hi,

 

finaly i found the reason the delete and backspace keys are not working.

I tested my application within a Microsoft Terminal Server Console (or remote Destop)

Testing the application localy worked fine.

 

i did not tested anymore the reason, perhaps the keycodes are not the same

Sorry for the delayed response - I didn't get auto-notified about this post. Anyway, I bet you just forgot to check the "disable keyboard shortcuts" in the IDE testing environment. By default, it ignores DELETE/BACKSPACE key presses as well as a few others. That's not a TransformManager problem - it's just how the testing environment in Flash works.

Yes indeed, trying to use key even in terminal server client is working when calling the SWF directly.

once more i learned something about flash, thx for the hint
