Add "Open In New Window" to Right Click action? 1

[randall2nd]

I am a newbie to flash, and like 500 other newbies I want to know about the menu that displays when a users right clicks on a flash movie. (the one with about macromedia)

However I do not want to get rid of it, I just want to know how to emulate the options that are displayed when a user right clicks on a link. Of particular intrest is the "Open in New Window" option.

I need for a user to be able to left click on a link and it open a page in the current screen, but if the user right clicks on a link then it gives them the option to open the target in a new window.

I do not have a lot of money to buy third party products, but if you know ones that can do it and it is the ONLY way you can think of, please list them.

I am open to any suggestions.

This for web use or a projector file?

Web use only.

You can't alter the Flash context right-click menu for online use. Show it or hide it (still left with Settings and the MM credit), but that's it!

Well that is disapointing news. :-(

Thanks for your responses.

Actually, if you have MX2004, you can use the new ContextMenu class, and create a personal right click menu. Here's the URL:

Hope you get it!
