Loading ...If you want to capture global keyboard events maybe you put this line of code in the constructor method of your actionscript 3 class:
addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyDown);
or
this.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyDown);
but maybe it doesn’t work?
Simple! because you have to add the listener to the stage object giving focus to it…
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyDown);
