Description
Why is it impossible to type a number in a FlxInputText without a numeric pad?
I'm developing on a laptop and it's really getting complicated to input numbers... Top row keyboard numbers gives only symbols, and shift key doesn't seems to work. I've tried on several keyboards and operating system without results.
Is that a bug, a feature?
While waiting for something better, I'm converting alphabet letters to numbers: f = 6, y = 24...
I really need help :)
