ActionScript 3.0 :: Show The Context Menu WITHOUT Right Click?
Jul 21, 2011
I have javascript making my swf enabled for right-click interaction (which means no context menu), but for some specific movie clips I actually do want the context menu to show on right click. I was thinking to do this I need some action script code that will open the context menu without a right click, since the javascript blocks the swf from knowing a right click has occured (the swf only knows that the javascript has told it to run some function).
The context menu method display(stage:Stage, stageX:Number, stageY:Number) sounds like it would have done the trick, but that is for AIR only.

Anybody know how to create a custom context menu (right click menu) in Flash?
If it's not possible, wouldn't it be a good idea for Macromedia to put some kind of event or something in there?

i wanted to place some credits item in the right button menu (no links, so no events, just a label with credits). i was looking the contextmenu help, and there is an example of how to add items, disable default items and so on, but i could not find how to attach the menu to the movie (the basic part). i tried both on 'stage' and it tells me that stage does not have a property called contextMenu, so i tried to attach it to a sprite, it runs ok and compiles ok but when i right click on the sprite i get the default menu

I noticed that when I publish my fla., the right-click context menu gives any person viewing the site the option to download the .swf (although the menu calls it a video) to their hard drive. That's krazy...In any event, I need to disable the option in the right-click menu. I read the tech report at Adobe

Since this is my first post here, I'd like to say hi to you all, and glad to be where I can share both enthuisasm and possible issues with Adobe Flash in general.And, regarding this first post, I'll be more than glad if someone could help me with this.It's a simple straight forward issue: Can a link of "Settings" inside Context (Right Click) Menu be placed in a movie as a simple link that opens it in a same manner (as in pic 2)?

When I attempt to select an item from the right click context menu, it sems as though the mouse "jumps". If I click repeatedly enough sometimes it will trigger the selected item. It only seems to be a problem on Windows FireFox/Chrome. It works fine on Windows IE, Mac Firefox/Chrome/Safari. Any ideas?I've added a function that displays a white halo when you mouse down to show where the computer is interpreting the mouse click.

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.

Basically, I have a button and on click it displays a menu. I want to click that menu a second time and the menu closes. Currently, every time you click the button, the menu reopens. I pasted the Flex livedoc example below. If you click the button, the menu keeps reopening.Now, I rigged it up by setting a var to open and closed, so when clicking the button it does a check. However, if you click away from the screen, the HIDE event gets dispatched, and the menu closes. This messed up the open close var being set.
How could I make this Flex example below show the menu on button click, and then on a second button click, it closes the menu? Take into affect that if you click away from the menu, it closes it.Also, I played around with the MOUSE_DOWN_OUTSIDE event for the button and set the preventDefault, and the FlexMouseEvent event.cancelable is set to false.Changing to a PopUpMenuButton is not an option. I have to much skinning involved.Here is the Flex example:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
// Import the Menu control.
import mx.controls.Menu;
[code]....

I have created this site with a expanding / collapsin menu. When a user selects a menu e.g. "hammers" then the menu is loaded and show the submenues. When the users closes the menu by moving the mouse away from the area the menu collapses. If the user expands the menu again the menu should have remember the last visit menu and show the menu.

I have a Flex app with a viewport that loads a series of other swfs. I would like to place a context menu over top of the SWFs when the user right-clicks. To that end, I have set up a fairly standard context menu where each item has a ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT event handler. One problem: The eventHandler never gets called.
If I place the context-menu code anywhere else in the app, i.e. not on top of a loaded SWF, everything works fine. However, when I place the exact same code on the SWF viewport, the context menu items appear, but the eventHandlers are never called.

I have a UIComponent (tried it also with Canvas) and some icons in it (sub views). On the UIComponent I defined some extra ContextMenuItems. Now when I'm testing it, the context menu appears only on the subviews (icons) with a right-click. I've checked the documentation but found nothing about required properties for using context menus. Why it's only on subviews?

Is there any way to know the parent/component which initiates context menu? I have a panel which contains different custom components. i want to open respective popup window of custom component from context menu when user right click on the respective component.
How can i find the parent custom component which initiates context menu?
for ex:
custom compoent: 1. Label, 2. Buttom
context menu Item: properties
On right click over 'Label' opens a context menu which has item 'properties', on clicking properties it should open custom popoup window showing properties of Label. similarly, for Button.
I am trying to listen Event on click of context menu, but it is not useful.

I was just wondering how you could remove the menu that comes up when you right-click. On professional websites, when you right-click on a flash thing, it only shows 2 options. Now, I want to be able to do this with actionscript 3(NOT ACTIONSCRIPT 2!!!).I searched google and found this: stage.showDefaultContextMenu=false;But this does not remove the whole menu.
