Dear all,

I have a movie where I have added listeners to keyboard and a slider component. The problem is the slider event is blocking my keyboard event (arrows basically). I am not catching keycode in the slider but I do with the arrows keys. Is there a way to disable that in the slider?

Thanks in advance
