Ye 3D sprite masking keydown events 2004-02-13 - By Neto
Back
Ah, I had forgotten about the focusSprite. I actually used it, since I
control the field's editable property manually (it only ever becomes
editable if the user clicks on it, and becomes uneditable if the user clicks
outside or press return). This became a little habit of mine, because in
past projects with lots of editable fields that could both work as variable
input and display I had a major pain in managing their updates, and
controlling who is editable and who isn't was the best solution.
