Jeff, I would try to reproduce the same at my end and let you know my findings..

One thing to know about my app is that it has a jpg on the background and no backgroundColor. One way I found to work around it was to wrap a canvas container around all my UI objects and set the backgroundColor t= 0xFFFFFF and backgroundAlpha = 0. I don't think a workaround like this should be necessary.

So if there's any app background not covered by a UI object you'll see the default Flash ContextMenu when you right-click on it. How can this be handled???? For sure, I want to suppress the default context menu in my app for the entire area of the player.

And you can get the flash context menu from anywhere on the screen that there isn't a UI item. Basically the controls are resting right on top of the application - there's no intermediary container. It seems like the reference you get to the application (Application.application) is still one level (or so) down from the player itself. How do you get a reference to the player so you can set its context menu?

But I am guessing that your Application has absolute width/height specified in your MXML. And your html-wrapper has different (greater) width/height. That's the only case, in my opinion, when flash-player's stage gets exposed. Try to keep the dimensions specified in MXML and HTML same. -abdul On 1/25/07, Battershall, Jeff < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I've got an app which I create a custom context menu for during > initialization, but I've noticed that the context menu only shows up > when I right click on UI objects (Tree, ApplicationControlBar, etc). but > still I get the default Flash context menu when I right click on the > background of the app. > > I've tried setting my custom menu to > Application.application.contextMenu, but the behavior is the same. > > What am I missing here? > > Jeff Battershall > Application Architect > Dow Jones Indexes > [EMAIL PROTECTED] <jeff.battershall%40dowjones.com> > (609) 520-5637 (p) > (484) 477-9900 (c) >
