Hide Context Menu Items
Hi, new member here.

Is it possible to hide the "copy" and "paste" context menu items for a TextField when a user right clicks on a TextField? I know you can use the ContextMenu object to hide built-in items for the flash player, but I haven't been able to figure out how to hide the built-in items for the TextField menu.

Thanks.

Is It Possible To Hide The Context Menue?
Hi,
i'm wondering if it's possible to hide or supress the whole right-click context menue of a published flash-file, mainly in a browser, not necessarily in the stand-alone-player.

I know it's possible to have only the entry "about flash..." specified in HTML like

<OBJECT>
<PARAM NAME=menu VALUE=false>
<EMBED src="xxx.swf" menu=false
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>

But i'd like to get rid of the whole menue. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Is There Anyway To Disable The Flash Player Dropdown Menu (not The Context Menu)
Greetings,
I am aware of how to reset the right-click context menu to just "settings", but when the file is opened in Flash Player directly from a computer instead of on the web, the drop-down menu in the player is still available. You can even press ctrl+enter to play. My searches just come up with solutions to the right-click menu, and I have a client who wants me to get rid of this menu for a game I've already made.

If you don't think there's even a way to do this, could you just tell me that so I can inform my client?

Thank you either way

[Using MX 2004 if it matters]

Flash Context Menu
Hello there,

I've managed to remove most of the objects in the context menu which is revealed when the user rights clicks in the SWF file. The piece of script I've used it: Stage.showMenu = false. However this also disables the "Settings" tab in the context menu when really I want this to be able to work.

Thanks in advance,

Kristopher (UK).

No Context Menu In Flash Application
I'm using a Flash application (?) [Flash Companion] and the context menus don't work in the text fields. I can right click forever and nothing happens. The output is in Flash 7. My OS is XP SP2. I've tried Flash Player 7 and 9. Other people using the same software don't have this problem. This means I can't copy and paste between text fields and my frustration level is over the top. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Problem With Custom Context Menu (Flash CS3/AS3)
I am attempting to implement a custom context menu in a Flash CS3 and ActionScript 3 project.

PROBLEM: The context menu displays and functions properly when testing the movie in Flash CS3 but does not display at all when viewing through my website (IE7 or Firefox).

Has anybody seen this before?

Here is a sample of some of the code I'm using. The context menu is created inside of the class where I have a few display objects.

public class MyClass
{
protected var m_ContextMenu:ContextMenu;

function MyClass()
{
//--- Build Context Menu
m_ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();

var item:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("TestItem");

m_ContextMenu.customItems.push(item);

item.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_S ELECT, menuItemSelectHandler);

m_ContextMenu.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.ME NU_SELECT, menuSelectHandler);
}

protected function menuSelectHandler(event:ContextMenuEvent):void
{
trace("menuSelectHandler: " + event);
}

protected function menuItemSelectHandler(event:ContextMenuEvent):void
{
trace("menuItemSelectHandler: " + event);
}
}

IE+Vista+Flash Context Menu Lockout
Hi there experts,

I'm tinkering with the mic activity AS3 stuff (although this is a general
flash question). This issue happens whether the .fla is trying reading the
mic or not though. On IE+XP I can right click to get context menu up, then
select allow mic access fine.

On IE+Vista the menu comes up, but all the tabs and buttons are partially or
totally unresponsive! It's like the browser is blocking mouse clicks or
something. I can't set mic to allow access, even though the mic can be seen
to be read on the activity level meter on the context menu.

Has anyone else had this problem? I can't seem to google for the exact issue
so far.

Many thanks

Richard Smith

Simple Flash Context Menu Customisation..?
I've been scouring the web for a simple, designer (read idiot-that's me!) friendly way of customising the context (right-click) menu which appears when viewing flash online or in the standalone player. Could anyone recommend one and where to find one in a flash source file format? I don't want anything fancy, i just want to remove the standard text, add in one or two lines and links, and that's it.

thanks!

Bringing Up Context Menu Stops Flash Drawing?
I'm sure this is a very good idea, but when building video players it's a pain, about two seconds after bring up the context menu in flash player 9, nothing is drawn onto the stage and videos stop playing.

I was just wondering whether anyone knew if it was possible to get around this, I've added a context menu for playback control but it's ultimately useless because the movie stops playing. I know it keeps on playing once you close the menu, it's just annoying.

I'm writing in AS2 so it's not an AS3 problem but a CS3, more specifically a player 9 issue.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

Flash Custom Context Menu Not Displaying In Website
I am attempting to implement a custom context menu in Flash CS3 (ActionScript 3). I am using Bewise's FlashControl to display the swf in my ASP.NET 2.0 website.

The example I provide below works fine for the following:

- Running from within Flash CS3 (Test Movie)
- Publish Preview from Flash CS3 (both using Player 9 and straight HTML... IE7 and Firefox)

It simply will not display the custom context menu item when running in my ASP.NET website (both from within VS2005 debug environment or fully published website).

Has anybody seen this before?

Sample Code
In my .fla file I do do the following:

var cm:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
var item:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem('Test Item');
cm.customItems.push(item);
MyMovieClip.contextMenu = cm;

Setting What Items Show Up In The Right-Click Flash Context Menu?
Hi,

I don't want players to be able to rewind and forward my flash game, so right now I'm using:

Code:
stage.showDefaultContextMenu=false
But this only shows the Settings and About options. Is there a way for me to choose what goes in there? Because I'd like to expose the quality (low, med, high, best) settings as well in the context menu.

Thanks!!

Flash Menu Fails To Hide Submenu
Hello All -

I have Flash 5. I have built a file with 8 NAV buttons. Each NAV button will have the abaility to show a submenu, and each submenu will have 3-7 buttons used to launch a URL.

(** right now all of the submens are the same - I'll change these when I get the code right)

I can get the main NAVs to show the submenu ok, and I have found a way to make each submenu show up highlight too. BUT ----

The submenus fail to hide when you mouse off them. What am I missing?

In my submenu I have frame one called 'hide' and frame two called - show; this is where the buttons/submenu is.

I can email the FLA if needed.

Thanks

Hi...

This is the first time i've done one of these forum things, so I hope i've got it right.

So do I just jump in and say my problems??
oh well, I would love to know how to disable all the 'zoom' and 'rewind' etc.. functions, so my context menu 'upon right click' so that it displays just 'settings' and 'about macromedia flash player 6...' as seen in every flash file around this and pretty much every other professional site.

Thanks very much in advance, and I hope I didn't do any stupid noob mistake.

Thanks again, Alka

Context Menu
When you publish a movie on a webpage for instance, the user has the ability to right click on the movie and select from a variety of commands on a context menu such as play, loop, zoom etc.

Sometimes I encounter movies that don't have these selections when you right click on them. As most would know, giving a user these abilities can alter how a Flash created webpage can interact.

What I want to know is whether there is a way to disable or minimize the use of this context menu.

Anyone with any ideas?

Thanks,

Robert

Context Menu
Hello,

I am fully aware that the context menu cant be got rid of fully, (although I believe there is a hack about, but for the life of me I cant find it).

I am in the middle of doing a demonstration in flash for an application, and part of the application I am demonstrating requires the user to click the right-mouse button for a menu to appear. at this stage I have the menu appearing as it should, but ofcourse the context menu also appears. And for this to disappear I have to click the left mouse button (or press a key).

does anyone know of a way of tricking flash in thinking that the left mouse button has been pressed, so that the context menu will appear for only an instance and then disappear when the "fake" mouse click occurs, or any other way I can get rid of the context menu...

cheer,s
btw, hello - I am new here (but not new to flash).

OK, so i thought...i can make a menu when the user right clicks...A Context menu. I created a snazzy orange menu. I made the AS so that when a user right clicks, the movie appears when they click, and when the choose an option, the menu disappears. There are two things on my list:

1) How can you completely disable the context menu. I don't care how, be it software, actionscript, javascript, html or anything.

2) How can i make it so that there is function like "onClickOutside" (i know that isn't a function) where something happens when a user clicks outside the menu (it disappears as well)

Context Menu Help
hi all
i m developing a project in flash. here i m facing a problem, need help of you experts. there is a label-movieclip (instance name= lbl1), there is a context menu for this label, in which there is option for bold font, italict, normal and "copy label". there is another context menu for _root, in which there is an option for "paste label", that is inactive at start.

when the user right clicks on the label and choose "bold" or "italic" the font('render text as html' is checked) becomes bold or italic as i give a value for

_root.lbl1.font_varName = "<b> label </b>"; ...

when user right cliks on label and selects "copy label", the context menu item "paste label" for _root, becomes active. and by selecting this paste label option a duplicate label movieclip is generated at mouse's _x, _y. and label's menu(bold, ..., copy label) is also assigned to this new duplicated movieclip.

now the problem arise. when i click "bold" in the duplicated movieclip, the parent mc's font becomes bold.. because there i hv defined _root.lbl1....

"this" is not working there. is there any way to find the instance name of the movieclip on which i hv clicked recently????? can anyone help me.

Context Menu Editing
I'm doing a tutorial for elderly folks on using the mouse, and I'm trying to teach them to use the right mouse button to operate a context menu. I've edited the menu, and told it to get a new URL when you click "continue lesson" item in the context menu. But I can't get the new page to open in the same window . . . it keeps opening in a new one, which is distracting to say the least, and that's if the pop-up blocker doesn't stop it.

Here's what I've got, and the menu works, the link works, but it opens in a new window:

stop();
function doSomething(){
getURL("next.html", _self);}
MENU.customItems.push(Functioned);
MENU = new ContextMenu();
MENU.hideBuiltInItems();
Functioned = new ContextMenuItem("Continue Lesson", doSomething);
MENU.customItems.push(Functioned);
_root.menu = MENU;

Is it possible to get the context menu item to get a URL in the same browser window?
