Adobe AIR 3 includes a great new feature: StageText. Using the normal TextField for text input works just fine, but this new TextField-like class allows you to control your text input more closely (especially on mobile devices) with many options like auto capitalization, software keyboard type, and more. It has its caveats (it’s a separate class, and it gets added to the top of the stage, so there’s no display list control) but overall it’s a great feature addition to Adobe AIR and the Flash platform as a whole.
