The work-around I listed would of course only work if you are just interested in key combo's with either Alt or Ctrl. Something like (right) Alt-Ctrl-5 won't work.
I had a second thought on Henriks comment about Alt vs AltGr and Googled a bit. ------------ Part of Wiki article: Control + Alt as a substitute Originally, US PC keyboards (specifically, the US 101-key PC/AT keyboards) did not have an AltGr key, it being relevant to only non-US markets; they simply had "left" and "right" Alt keys. As those using such US keyboards increasingly needed the specific functionality of AltGr when typing non-English text, Windows began to allow it to be emulated by pressing the Alt key together with the Control key: Ctrl+Alt ? AltGr Therefore, it is recommended that this combination not be used as a modifier in Windows keyboard shortcuts as, depending on the keyboard layout and configuration, someone trying to type a special character with it may accidentally trigger the shortcut,[4] or the keypresses for the shortcut may be inadvertently interpreted as the user trying to input a special character. -------------- So I think this explains why I get 2 events when pressing the right alt key. Although the key says "Alt" it actual behaves like the mentioned AltGr key. In other words. Flash doesn't actual support pure Alt key behavior but only AltGr. - Benny _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
