Fscommand Showmenu
Hello....

I've tried and tried, but nothing seems to work

I tested my website on a server and the flash menu keeps popping up even though i've put
fscommand("showmenu","false"); on the first frame of the flash file.

Actually i'm using a base movie to load in another movie. I put the fscommand on both.

What could be the problem?

Can I Place Stage.showMenu Anywhere?
I know it needs to be on the first frame of my movie but can I place the Stage.showMenu = false; in the same frame as my preloader script as shown below? Or does the Stage.showMenu have to be on it's own frame or in the actual movie?

Code:
if (_framesloaded>=_totalframes) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 1", 1);
} else {
gotoAndPlay("Loader", 1);
}
Stage.showMenu = false;

Problem With Fscommand Showmenu
I am making a demo cd for a client which involves an intro.exe and a landing page (nav.swf). On the first frame of the intro I put in the actionscript code: fscommand("showmenu", false); to hide the menu. So the intro.exe plays fine and the menu is hidden, but then when it loads in the nav.swf using code: loadMovie("nav.swf", 0); the window size grows in height. It seems to be trying to compensate for the pixels that the menu used to occupy. This only shifts when viewing it on a PC. When I view it on a Mac it doesn't have that problem. Has anybody had this problem before? Is there a solution? Any help is much appreciated!

Showmenu Doesn´t Work For Me...

any help?

Problems With Stage.showMenu
Ok, I submit my stuff to newgrounds.com as I've said many times before. Right now I'm working on a game. The game gets really messed up if you right click and choose forward or play. I can't turn off the menu with html, so I found a code called

Stage.showMenu = "false"

that I tested with their file upload system. it works perfectly. However, it changes my movie dimensions. it extends the height a little on the top and bottom, showing stuff that shouldn't be seen. As soon as I turn the code off, the dimensions go back to normal.

what do I do? Why can't I have correct dimensions AND no menu?

Stage.showMenu = False
Hi everybody!

I decided to post this because I've seen so many nice pages everywhere that are easily ruined by right clicking and zooming in, so I guess there's alot of people who don't know that you can fix this with a simple line of code on the main scene...

Stage.showMenu = false

Fscommand Showmenu To Disable Settings, About?
I would like to disable all rightclick (for a ppc it's tap&hold) menus from the player, but it looks like i can't disable the settings or about context menu?

i want to use my own tap&hold behavior (or right click, whatever you prefer).

is this possible?!?

False Showmenu Margin Problem?
Alright, this isn't a very technical or convoluted problem. I'm making a simple interactive movie, and being as controlling as I am, naturally invoked the 'Stage.showmenu = false' code in the first frame of the movie. This is the first time I've really attempted to use this, and I noticed later upon exporting the projector file that there was a top and bottom margin problem. The problem being that there were approximately 10 excessive pixels on the top and bottom of the projected movie.

I've attempted to combat this the only way I could think to (short of resizing the entire stage, thereby truncating the bottom and leaving the top unaffected), which is to play with all the Stage.scaleMode properties. At first it seemed that changing the scaleMode to exactFit resized the movie correctly -- as there was no more visible top and bottom breaks -- but as more experienced actionscripters have probably guessed, this just made it stretch the movie by those ~20 pixels, which is a very undesirable prospect.

This seems like it must be a common problem, and I'm admittedly inexperienced, so any managable solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Problem Setting Showmenu To False With Fscommand
Hi all

I have a very strange problem: I have published my projector file using fscommand to take the menu out, the only problem I have now is that the projector file puts a space at the top and bottom of my movie, almost as if it is compensating for the menu being out. Why does the projector not conform to the movie size? If I put the menu back in the space is not there anymore. This problem is driving me nuts.

Thanks

Fscommand: Showmenu FALSE Leaves White Space - Help Please
hey kirupa grooop:: you seem like a nice lot.

I have a problem.
At request from my client, I need to remove the "File, View, Control, Help" from the top of my projector window.

so... I use:
fscommand("showmenu", "false");

this works, but it leaves white space at the top and bottom of my projector window when it removes the menu.

This makes the entire app I'm working on look like crap and totally un-professional. Can anyone help out with this? Has anyone seen this as well?

(sorry if mentioned/posted before... I searched, but didnt find this exact problem)

ps --- I'm using MX 2004 Pro ---

Fscommand "showmenu" No Work On MAC OS
I've created a standalone for PC (.exe) and a MAC projector (.hqx) from Flash MX.

Fscommand("showmenu", False); ?
I have used the code below to disable the flash context menu. It works for the flash player; however, when I view it in a browser the context menu is there. I have cleared the cache and it has no effect on it. I have a separate swf using the same code and the menu is not displayed in the browser.

//the fscommand sets the movie to its native size with no scaling.//
fscommand("allowscale", false);
//the fscommand does not allow the movie to fill the screen.//
fscommand("fullscreen", false);
//fscommand does not allow the right click flash context menu to be displayed.//
fscommand("showmenu", false);
//stops the movie from playing.//
stop();

Thanks in advance,

Fscommand ("showmenu", False);
I have been trying to get the right click menu to only show the two main options and nothing else.. ie: "settings" + "about Macromedia Flash MX" and none of the other options available without this fscommand... I had a clue from someone in another forum that it was a javascript..... This must be a relatively simple operation.. can anyone pass me a script for dealing with this? would be most appreciated...cheers

Fscommand "showmenu"
I am creating a projector and using the fscommand "showmenu" as false (fullscreen false also). When I do this, and load a 'fullscreen' .swf file, it creates extra pixels on the top and bottom. Any way to work around this while not being able to view the menu?

Thanks.

Fscommand("showmenu", "false") Makes Projector Win Wrong Size
I want to create a projector that doesnt have the flash menu bar at the top that says file, view, control, help. I mainly just want to turn off the control part of this menu, so people cant mess things up by trying to play the movie or rewinding and such. My projector is 550 pixels tall, with the menu bar at the top, this adds another 20 pixels, making the window height on open 570 total. When i turn off the top menu, using:

fscommand("showmenu", "false");

the window still opens at 570, but the movie centers itself with 10 pixels on top and 10 on the bottom. If I resize my movie, to 530 to offset this, it only offsets things at the bottom, so i still see the 10 pixels at the top. I dont want to get into repositioning all the things in my movie. Is there some way i can get around this? Is there away to turn off the controls in the projector part of the movie only?

thanks,
Jason
