Hi, I have a DataGrid that has a MXDataGridItemRenderer applied as an itemEditor to one of the columns. The editor includes a spark.components.TextArea control.

By default, any text item editor of a datagrid closes itself when [enter] key is pressed.. Keeping this in mind; What I want to do is:

1. Prevent editor from closing on [SHIFT+ENTER] key but accept the linebreak (I can do this, see code below)
2. Close the editor on [ENTER] key but do not accept the linebreak (could not achieve this)

Here is the current code in the MXDataGridItemRenderer:

<s:MXDataGridItemRenderer xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" 
                      xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" 
                      xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" 
                      focusEnabled="true" 
                      >
<fx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
        protected function onTxtDataKeyDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void
        {
            //Prevent editor from closing on [SHIFT+ENTER] key but accept the linebreak // » this works
            if (event.shiftKey && event.keyCode == 13) { event.stopImmediatePropagation(); }

            //Close the editor on [ENTER] key but do not accept the linebreak
            else if (event.keyCode == 13) { event.preventDefault(); } // » does not work
        }

    ]]>
</fx:Script>

<s:TextArea id="txtData" paddingTop="3" lineBreak="explicit"
            text="{dataGridListData.label}" 
            verticalScrollPolicy="auto" horizontalScrollPolicy="off" 
            keyDown="onTxtDataKeyDown(event)" 
            />

I also tried the textInput event but that did not do the trick. So: How can I prevent the linebreak when the editor is closed on [enter] key?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

EDIT: If I change the spark.components.TextArea to mx.controls.TextArea, second part with event.preventDefault() will work as expected but then the first part where SHIFT+ENTER accepts the linebreak will not work.
