ContextMenuItem class

Availability
Flash Player 7.
Description
You use the ContextMenuItem class to create custom menu items to display in the Flash Player
context menu. Each ContextMenuItem object has a caption (text) that's displayed in the context
menu and a callback handler (a function) that's invoked when the menu item is selected. To add a
new context menu item to a context menu, you add it to the
ContextMenu object.
You can enable or disable specific menu items, make items visible or invisible, or change the
caption or callback handler associated with a menu item.
Custom menu items appear at the top of the context menu, above any built-in items. A separator
bar always divides custom menu items from built-in items. You can add no more than 15 custom
items to the Flash Player context menu. Each item must contain at least one visible character—
control characters, newlines, and other white space characters are ignored. No item can be more
than 100 characters long. Items that are identical to any built-in menu item, or to another custom
item, are ignored, whether the matching item is visible or not. Menu items are compared without
regard to case, punctuation, or white space.
None of the following words can appear in a custom item: Macromedia, Flash Player, or Settings.
