Thanks for sharing this simple and elegant code, works for me in my Flex 1.5 based app.

Hi
I would like the above code ("Ctrl+1") (Keyboard shortcuts for Flex UI components) to make it work on Flex2.0 too. Since Flex2.0 doesn't have mx.utils.Delegate. Is there any alternate solutions for the above code?
Regards,
Ravi.G

Thank you Maryam for the example, here is another example that works on flex 3:

private function init():void{


//your init code


this.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keyHandler);


}





private function keyHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void {


var bCTRLPressed:Boolean = event.ctrlKey;


if( bCTRLPressed){


var curKeyCode:int = event.keyCode;


if(curKeyCode==83){


//CTRL + S pressed; saveCall()


}


if(curKeyCode==78 ){


//CTRL + N pressed; NewEntryCall()


}


if(curKeyCode == 68){


//CTRL + D pressed; DeleteEntryCall()


}


if(curKeyCode == 67){


//CTRL + C pressed; CopyCall()


}


if(curKeyCode == 70){


//CTRL + F pressed; SearchCall()


}


}


}

Instead of using


.


.


var bCTRLPressed:Boolean = event.ctrlKey;


if( bCTRLPressed){


var curKeyCode:int = event.keyCode;


if(curKeyCode==83){


//CTRL + S pressed; saveCall()


}


.


.




You could just use the following:




private function keyHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void {


var curKeyCode:int = event.keyCode;


if(curKeyCode==14){


//CTRL + N pressed;


}


.


.




No need to check if CTRL is pressed, unless you really need to react on a CTRL keypress alone.





CTRL + [x] does have its own keyCode, ex:


CTRL + A = 1


CTRL + B = 2


CTRL + C = 3


---


ALT + A = 197


ALT + B = 166


ALT + C = 199


---


A = 65


B = 66


C = 67







Happy coding...
