You can customize the standard context menu and the text-editing context menu that appears with SWF files in Flash Player 7 and later.

• The standard context menu appears when a user right-clicks (Windows) or Control‑clicks (Macintosh) on a SWF file in Flash Player, in any area except an editable text field. You can add custom items to the menu, and hide any built‑in items in the menu except Settings and Debugger.

• The editing context menu appears when a user right-clicks (Windows) or Control‑clicks (Macintosh) in an editable text field in a SWF file in Flash Player. You can add custom items to this menu. You cannot hide any built‑in items.

Customize context menus in Flash Player 7 by using the ContextMenu and ContextMenuItem objects in ActionScript 2.0. For more information on using these objects, see ContextMenu in the ActionScript 2.0 Language Reference.

Remember the following conditions when creating custom context menu items for Flash Player:

• Custom items are added to a context menu in the order in which they are created. You cannot modify this order after the items are created.

• You can specify the visibility and enabling of custom items.

• Custom context menu items are automatically encoded using Unicode UTF‑8 text encoding.
