@Maurice. The behavior you describe is the expected behaviour. Before I code the component, I search the web for available solutions, and I see the same behaviour adopted in various implementations, so I take that as a pattern... The way you expect it to behave is already valid too and widely used...maybe we could take some property to go one behaviour or another...since I think both are valid
@Maxime. Thanks for sharing :), In a first quick revision I see it very clean and organized, I'll digg as I get some time :). can you upload a demo to some place where we can preview it?. Regarding the skin, It's very close to default spark TextInput skin, but I use the prompt to show the remaing mask, and I removed the incluedIn from prompt. I think nothing more there :) 2013/12/10 Maxime Cowez <maxime.co...@gmail.com> > @Carlos > > I put my take at a MaskedTextInput in a Gist: > https://gist.github.com/RIAstar/7893328 > I repeat: there's some rather dirty code in there, however there's also > some logic to handle multiple separators with a regex.
