Hi Maxim, Thanks for the message, is this a known problem with other people, or am I the only one experiencing it? I've been doing some tests modifying the source file but so far I haven't been able to figure out what causes the problem or get any debug data to display in my browser.
I have included the flash.external.ExternalInterface library in the screenSharingDialog.lzx file and added this line to the keydown and keyup event handlers: ExternalInterface.call( "console.log" , k); But I'm not getting anything to display in Firebug. Is there a good way I can collect debug data from the Flash application? That would help me diagnose the problem. I've tried console-logging the Java application that is run by the person sharing their screen, but it doesn't indicate anything abnormal when the remote user presses spacebar, so I think the problem is with the Flash part of the application.
