"Enter" button keyCode change in AIR3.7

not sure if bug or simple feature change?

 

i noticed soft keyboard 'enter' key returns keycode '10' instead of  traditional '13' in air3.7 on android (tested on nexus 4 & 7).

 

it means hardcoded actionscript 'keyboard.enter' no longer works button. example, won't catch 'enter' key:

 

_nameinput.addeventlistener(keyboardevent.key_up, keyup);

 

private function keyup(event:keyboardevent):void

{

          // test '13'

          if (event.keycode == keyboard.enter)

          {

               //  submitting form here etc

          }

}

 

instead, enter key add linebreak textfield.

 

my workaround detect both keycodes:

 

if (event.keycode == keyboard.enter || event.keycode == 10)

hi,

could please confirm enter key talking about. same marked in red on softkeyboard in attached image.

 

 

regards,

nimit
