Alessandro Palombaro commented on FLEX-24442:
---------------------------------------------
Another workaround is to listen for the keyup event instead (which triggers in
IE correctly) and then manually dispatch a keydown event on the TextAreas
textDisplay skinPart (RichEditableText) textContainerManager (mx_internal
property) container which is what the undo manager is listening for the events
on.
Example. First check if the user is running IE (I used ExternalInterface call
and navigater.userAgent search, but there might be an easier way), otherwise a
single undo operation will trigger twice
If the user is running IE add the keyup listener to the textArea instance and
then manually dispatch a keydown event on the target of the undo manager
protected function _keyUpHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void
{
if (event.ctrlKey && event.keyCode == Keyboard.Z)
{
var richText:RichEditableText = textArea.textDisplay as
RichEditableText;
var event:KeyboardEvent = new
KeyboardEvent(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, event.bubbles, event.cancelable,
event.charCode, event.keyCode,
event.keyLocation, event.ctrlKey, event.altKey, event.shiftKey);
// unfortunately only means of accessing the target container seems to be via
mx_internal
richText.mx_internal::textContainerManager.container.dispatchEvent(event);
}
}
Anyway hope this helps
