Question

Escape keys

I'm so sad that "Escape" + "s" + "t" doesn't gimme a stop anymore. I was wondering if someone could point me to a listing of all of the AS3 escape key commands. Is there something built into Flash that can give them to me?

Thanks,
Dan P.

Thanks a bunch!

Is that all of them? Anyone know if I can make my own custom ones?

Thanks,

Yup, but not for things like save, cut, paste, etc, but the escape codes for Actionscript that flash uses to automatically input code... for instance, if you're in AS2, and you type "Escape" then "s" + "t" it will automatically put in "stop();" for you. Other useful ones are "Escape" then "f" then "n" it will put in the standard function code with parens and curly brackets. Unfortunately, the stop one and a few others don't work for AS3 now :(
