FLASH: Calendar (was: forgotten thread - shift-click??)

[Nathan Dicken]

Glenn,


As was mentioned in another response to your original post, you can't

monitor the Shift key being pressed in Flash, but you can specify other

keys to do the same function.  The interesting part in this came when tying

to monitor the key release, which can't be done but you can mimic it... 

Check out the following and let me know if that's close to what you're

thinking of.  You can use the TAB key in place of the Shift key for now to

span between dates (press before clicking)...

Right now, if you switch months, it loses the data that is stored in the

days from the previous month, but that could be changed fairly easily just

based on how the data is stored.   Hope this helps...
