Enter Asian characters on a Western keyboard
With Flash, you can use Input Method Editors (IMEs) and standard Western keyboards to enter Asian characters on the Stage. Flash supports more than two dozen IMEs.
For example, to create a website that reaches a broad range of Asian viewers, you can use a standard Western (QWERTY) keyboard and change the IME to create text in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
Note: This feature affects only text input
on the Stage, not text entered in the Actions panel. This feature
is available for all supported Windows operating systems and Mac OS
X.
- Select Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Flash > Preferences (Macintosh), and click Text in the Category list.
- Under Input Method, select one of the options to input characters from a Western keyboard. The default is Chinese and Japanese and it should also be selected for Western languages.
