left click menu

[godowsky]

need a right click menu fast!!

How do I build a simple left click menu to have on top on my trans swf? ???

[SWFKit]

Do you mean the context menu?

FlashPlayer.onContextMenu = function ()
{
***var menu = new Menu;
***menu.createPopupMenu();
***menu.appendItem("id0", "item 0");
***menu.appendItem("id1", "item 1");
***menu.appendItem();
***menu.appendItem("id2", "item 2");
***menu.appendItem("id3", "item 3");
***

***var id = menu.show();
***if (id == "id0") Dialogs.msgBox("item0 clicked");
***else if (id == "id1") Dialogs.msgBox("item1 clicked");
***else if (id == "id2") Dialogs.msgBox("item2 clicked");
***else if (id == "id3") Dialogs.msgBox("item3 clicked");
}

You can also build the menu using the menu creator and load it using Menu.load method.

because my movie is transparent the flash menu only appears when over som grafix but my grafix is moving and not allways around, - I suppose if I have a swfKitmenu it will show on a transparent bg?

[SWFKit]

Do you mean that you want to launch a swfkit menu when click an item in your movie(a button for example)?

That's easy, add a fscommand in your movie like

fscommand("ffish_run", "showMenu");

and add a "showMenu" script in swfkit to display the menu.

no I mean that I want a menu on top of my swf when I right click on the app.

If I use the normal flash menu and programme it in flash it will only show if you click on some grafix because I have a transparent movie.

And because the 'grafix' in my movie are moving and actually not always shown I wonder if its an idear to have a menu build by swfkit

[godowsky]

this is what it should do og right click:

load program again
minimize/maximize
load external URL
exit

We will make a sample for you tomorrow.

thanks but I really need it now, - had to send the app 2 hours ago!!


Just give me a sample on how to get in touch with the flash movie..

[godowsky]

hi, - sorry for my unpolite remarks, - I was a bit stressed up.

Can you tell me how to make a button in the system tray that restarts the application?
