You got my mind cranking so your fix did help me. Thank you
very much. Here is my archaic workaround.
// To get around the double click on the list box adobe bug
private var doubleClickTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 1); //
one second
private var singleClick:Boolean = false;
private function courseFiles_click():void
if(isDoubleClick())
courseFiles_doubleClick();
private function isDoubleClick():Boolean
var myReturn:Boolean = false; // default false
if(singleClick)
myReturn = true; // we get here if it is a double click so
return true
if(singleClick == false)
// init timer
doubleClickTimer.start();
doubleClickTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE,
onTimerCompleteDoubleClickTimer);
singleClick = true;
return myReturn;
private function
onTimerCompleteDoubleClickTimer(evt:TimerEvent):void
singleClick = false; // set it to false after the timer
interval
}
