CTRL-X, CTRL-C, CTRL-V in Text Fields

How do I enable cut, copy, and paste keyboard shortcuts in my text fields?

Flash does not support cut, copy, and paste keyboard shortcuts in text fields when playing in "windowless" mode. To see this problem in the browser, publish your fla to HTML with the wmode set to "transparent windowless".

You can remedy this issue in mProjector by adding a key listener and using mProjector's mSystem.setClipboard() and mSystem.getClipboard() commands.

Code Snippet:

your_text_field.restrict = "= — - * ~ , ) ( % $ § + ' | _ & ? / : . @ - A-Z a-z 0-9  x16 ^"

Key_listen = new Object();
Key_listen.onKeyDown = function(evt) {
keyCode = Key.getCode();
if (Key.isDown(Key.CONTROL)) {
my_field = eval(Selection.getFocus());
var my_text:String = my_field.text;
if (Key.getCode() == 118 || Key.getCode()== 86) {
// V or v
my_text = mSystem.getClipboard();
my_field.text = my_text;
bug = true;
}
if (Key.getCode() == 99 || Key.getCode() == 67) {
// C or c
mSystem.setClipboard(my_text);
}
if (Key.getCode() == 88 || Key.getCode() == 120) {
// X or x
mSystem.setClipboard(my_text);
my_field.text = "";
}
}
};
Key.addListener(Key_listen);
