I like the slideshow template included with flash but i think i found a bug that i can’t solve. If you use the slideshow, pressing the arrow keys on the keyboard to navigate, then switch between apps (mac or pc) and come back to the projector or stand alone swf, they key presses don’t work anymore.

Has anyone else had this issue? It is specific to the slideshow i think. Does anyone know a way around this? Thanks!
