Flash :: "settings" Context Menu Is Unavailable On Local Player
Mar 13, 2011
I need my flash movie to have access to the microphone, but it is refusing to display the confirmation dialog and the "Settings" context menu item is disabled. The document size is adequate to display the dialog, though. The catch, though, this is only occurring when the SWF is run in the local player. If I run the SWF in a browser, it asks properly and the settings menu is available.
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.
In the default context menu, there's the quality adjustment settings with a sub menu for the low, medium, high. I know how to manipulate the menu at the top level just fine (so don't worry about having to explain how to use the ContextMenu classes), I'm just wondering if it's possible to create sub-menus like that quality one.
I write a flex application. I added some custom menu items in context menu. when I compiled this code using flashplayer 10.0, it works fine and my added context menu items are shown when I Right-Click. But when I compile same code for flashPlayer 10.1, menu items that I added in context menu are not shown when I Right-Click. I am using sdk 3.5.
I am doing this; private var cm:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu(); var versionMenu:ContextMenuItem = null; var dateMenu:ContextMenuItem = null; if(model.appVersion.length > 0) { versionMenu = new ContextMenuItem(model.appVersion); [Code] .....
I have a Network site license for Adobe CS4 Flash. However, my users Settings KEEP deleting because they are stored in AppDataLocal instead of AppDataRoaming (Windows 7) or Local SettingsApplication Data instead of just Application Data (XP). In a Network, local settings are deleted on logoff.
WHY on EARTH would Adobe Change this? We have been running Adobe Flash (Macromedia before that) for 10 years and we never had issues with MX, Flash 8, Flash 9 or CS3 but in CS4 all the settings move to the ONE folder that deletes on logoff?
The weird thing is that Dreamweaver CS4, Photoshop CS4, Indesign CS4 and Illustrator CS4, Fireworks CS4 ALL store their settings in the Application Data folder, not the Local one.
i want to know whether its possible to change the local settings manager of flash programatically?. Earlier when the global settings manager was there i changed the settings by directly editing the .sol file? Will the same work now?
I want to disable the context menu in flash movie.I have tried some solutions on the internet but none of them work.I am using Flash CS4 with ActionScript 3.I am really frustrated and would appreciate a straight-forward working solution.
Is there a way to add custom fields to the built in browser context menu using Javascript?I know flash/actionscript can do this, how are they doing it? Example: right click onand see the custom context menu.Is this possible with pure javascript or do you have to use flash?Note, I'm looking for adding to the built in browser context menu, not using custom javascript popups to mimic them.
I Wrote this code but (redraw region) is still visible what can i do to hide it
ActionScript Code: var my_menu:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu(); my_menu.hideBuiltInItems(); var my_notice = new ContextMenuItem("Heights Agency - Visit our site");
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)?
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
var _menu_item:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("here goes [code].....
What is the keyboard shortcut to open a context menu in Flash? Shift+F10 doesn't work.. Now I am trying to implement a key-down event handler like below:
public function customKeyHandler(e:KeyboardEvent):void { if (e.keyCode == flash.ui.Keyboard.F10 && e.shiftKey)
But this is not working as the F10 key in flash is reserved by the system and cannot be used in action script according to this [URL]
how to go about enabling context menu in Flash to be opened using keyboard (not mouse right click) ??

I am trying to find the best way to improve the user experience when interacting with a context menu in a Flex application. I already know that the context menu in Flex is quite limited in terms of how it is constructed and what it can show.
What I was hoping to do was to implement something similar to what Microsoft Word does in 2010 or later, where when right clicking a little floating palette is displayed above the common popup menu. I was hoping that there was a way to 1) listen for an event that is triggered when a context menu is displayed, and 2) determine the location of the context menu so that I could display a floating palette above the context menu as in Word. So far, I have not found out how to accomplish either of these things.
I suspect that there might be some focus and stage management issues with this approach generally, but I was hoping to at least get to the point where those issues were discovered.
I am using twilo client in one of my apps and it is showing following popup when I click on call buttonBut I want to show the following pop up which is lot simpler and seems less cumbersomeIs there a way to control which pop up comes on the screen? I have read some documentation of adobe but their configuration files live in users computer which ofcourse can not be changed by a website.
var contextMenu:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu(); contextMenu.hideBuiltInItems(); var contactList : ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("Add to Existing List");

My Flex 3 application uses a custom cursor and has to show a customized context menu when the user performs a right click. The problem is the customized menu is shown only when the default arrow cursor is shown. When I change it to the custom cursor, the standard context menu appears instead of the customized one.
Is there a way to have both custom cursor and customized context menu in a flash application?
I am developing aplication using flash 2.1. I want to disable the flash lite context menu which gets open when user clicks on Pocket PC. How to do this?
Yes correct I'm talking about Flash Player 11, thats what it says in Flash CS5 software. Whatever I do in Publish Setting, Flash software always returns option to be Flash Player 11, I don't get this. I choose Flash Player 8 and AS 2.0 and re-open Publish Settings it is again back on Flash Player 11 and AS 3.0. First screenshot Second screenshot
I asked Google. But there is no working answer for it. I checked "right click -> global setings" and found no proxy setting in [URL].. Can anyone know how to configure proxy settings for flash player?
Within a Chrome extension, how can I inject items into the context menus of 3rd party flash objects?
Is it possible to simply inject items using JavaScript? Is it possible to wrap the players in a container .swf that adds our context menu item along with the items included by the original swf?
Edit: To be clear, what I'd like to do with my extension is add a context menu item to any 3rd party Flash program. So for instance, if a user visits YouTube, I'd like to add my own menu item along with YouTube's custom items.
