Alex,
I now tried to fully qualified the event thrown and the result is the same.
I uploaded the TextInput modifications in a commit
(dc2d8364393aa29df8c38f3fb91082bfab4f6036)
could you take a look and let me know what you think. I'm doing something
wrong? it's a bug?
(I uploaded some changes to TodoList sample and you can see the use case in
TodoListView,mxml)
Thanks for your help
Carlos
