(If it does, please show me a working example.) A workaround for this can be: place a Sprite on top of the main class (I use the term &lsquo;main class&rsquo; and 'Document class&rsquo; interchangeably, since they are synonyms) with the same dimensions and assign a listener to the top object. It&rsquo;s easy, and works like a charm.</p>
