I have my project developed in Flex3,
<<Site Link Removed now>>
You can check it here, the problem I'm facing is, copying(Ctrl + c) the content from screen textarea
when the swf
is running in chrome browser.
suppose, I have to add some text on the stage, so the text area which is opened on the left side, I can't copy the text written in text area, although by right clicking in textarea
, and selecting the copy option, thats working, but my client has asked for copying the content by using Ctrl + c, although it's working very fine with other browsers,
only chrome is not supporting copying(Ctrl + c), although selecting all(Ctrl + A ) is working
So this the thing, which I thought I should discuss, may b someone also hav same problem,
Use KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN
to detect "C" being pressed. Then check for ctrlKey
to see if it is down, and use System.setClipboard(source.text);
to set the clipboard content.
textArea.addEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyDown);
private function onKeyDown ( ev : KeyboardEvent ) : void
{
if (ev.keyCode != 67 || !ev.ctrlKey) return;
var text:String = textArea.text;
System.setClipboard( text);
}
Beware, though: Sometimes odd things can happen simultaneously, like the text content disappearing and such. You might have to work around that!
