SelectionEvent bug?

Hi,

I'd like to know if somebody else is having this behaivor.

I'm adding an event listerner to SelectionEvent.SELECTION_CHANGE events. in this way:

textFlow.addEventListener(SelectionEvent.SELECTION_CHANGE, selectionChangeListener, false, 0, true );

The proble is that every time the selection changes, the vent is been dispatched twice. The event listener is been added just once.

I also checked the type of the event, just to make sure I'm not capturing two event with the same event listener, but both are of type "selectionChange".

Any ideas?

Fix is to remove the redundant call to selectionChanged in SelectionManager.handleMouseEventForSelection.

You could subclass SelectionManager and EditManager and then add overrides for mouseDownHandler and mouseMoveHandler so that they call a modified version of the function.

It's a bug.  Appears to happen on mouse events but not on keyboard events.

I'll write it up.
