Flash: Disable Right-Click

[FoxLeader]

Hello everyone,

I searched a bit on the forums to find a way to disable the flash right-click without setting enabled to false (I still need interaction with the object) and without putting it in a web object. I didn't find anything satisfying.

Is there any other way? (note: I can't edit the SWF to disable the right-click).

A post by Corey made back in 2004 is saying no, however is there anything new in those last four years?

Thanks a lot!

im needing do the same but have been putting it off, so i will be intrested to see any comments about this

If i read this post correctly, you want to disable the right click. I remember time ago posting here DisableMouse.dll. One of the functions (DisableRightClick) could do the job. See if it does what you're after.

With Kind Regards

yes, used with worms "IsInRect" function this could be just the ticket


EDIT, yup, just the ticket


put in global

function IsInRect(m_nX, m_nY, m_tblPos, m_tblSize)
	local bReturn = false;
	if (m_nX >= m_tblPos.X) and (m_nX <= m_tblPos.X + m_tblSize.Width) then
		if (m_nY >= m_tblPos.Y) and (m_nY <= m_tblPos.Y + m_tblSize.Height) then
			bReturn = true;
		end
	end
	return bReturn;
end

put in on mouse move event

if IsInRect(e_X, e_Y,  Flash.GetPos("Flash1"), Flash.GetSize("Flash1")) then
	DLL.CallFunction("AutoPlay\\Docs\\DisableMouse.dll", "DisableRightClick", 1, DLL_RETURN_TYPE_LONG, DLL_CALL_CDECL);
else
	DLL.CallFunction("AutoPlay\\Docs\\DisableMouse.dll", "DisableRightClick", 0, DLL_RETURN_TYPE_LONG, DLL_CALL_CDECL);
end

Thanks sside

Wow, that's outstanding. Thanks a lot guys

[FoxLeader]

Do any of you have that DLL? I found the topic here: http://www.indigorose.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18732 but it's down, and I haven't been able to find it in any of your ".Net extensions" volumes.

Thanks again! (When I'll have done what I wanted, I hope you'll like it as I do )

DisableMouse library thread is updated.

DisableMouse.dll can also can be found at Ams .Net Extensions Volume 1

np

Isn't it possible to dynamically add that code to the page's event?

Here's what I got (I tried it on page's On Show):

sCurrentActivePage = Application.GetCurrentPage();

-- Get the script existing in the event
sPreviousPageScript = Application.GetPageScript (sCurrentActivePage, "On Mouse Move");

-- Set the AddToPageScript value
sAddToPageScript = "if IsInRect(mouseX, mouseY,  Flash.GetPos(\"Flash1\"), Flash.GetSize(\"Flash1\")) then DLL.CallFunction(\"AutoPlay\\Components\\mouse.dll\", \"DisableRightClick\", 1, DLL_RETURN_TYPE_LONG, DLL_CALL_CDECL); else DLL.CallFunction(\"AutoPlay\\Components\\mouse.dll\", \"DisableRightClick\", 0, DLL_RETURN_TYPE_LONG, DLL_CALL_CDECL);end"

-- Add the mouse move and flash right click disable to the end
sNewPageScript = sPreviousPageScript .. "\r\n" ..sAddToPageScript;

-- Set the event's script
Application.SetPageScript(sCurrentActivePage, "On Mouse Move", sNewPageScript );

I figured that since e_X and e_Y are local variables (aren't they?) I couldn't use them On Show so I added this to On Mouse Move:

mouseX = e_X
mouseY = e_Y

But this doesn't work either... any idea?

[RizlaUK]

ok, in the script you add to the page, remove ";", << is the lua character for EOL (end of line, this tells the lua engine thats its the end of the line of code)

try this

sCurrentActivePage = Application.GetCurrentPage();

-- Get the script existing in the event
sPreviousPageScript = Application.GetPageScript (sCurrentActivePage, "On Mouse Move");

-- Set the AddToPageScript value
sAddToPageScript = "mouseX = e_X \r\n mouseY = e_Y \r\n if IsInRect(mouseX, mouseY,  Flash.GetPos(\"Flash1\"), Flash.GetSize(\"Flash1\")) then \r\n DLL.CallFunction(\"AutoPlay\\Components\\mouse.dll\", \"DisableRightClick\", 1, DLL_RETURN_TYPE_LONG, DLL_CALL_CDECL)\r\n else \r\n DLL.CallFunction(\"AutoPlay\\Components\\mouse.dll\", \"DisableRightClick\", 0, DLL_RETURN_TYPE_LONG, DLL_CALL_CDECL)\r\n end"

-- Add the mouse move and flash right click disable to the end
sNewPageScript = sPreviousPageScript .. "\r\n" ..sAddToPageScript;

-- Set the event's script
Application.SetPageScript(sCurrentActivePage, "On Mouse Move", sNewPageScript );

This didn't work :s

I'll post an apz in a few minutes.

[RizlaUK]

here, this works

sCurrentActivePage = Application.GetCurrentPage();

-- Get the script existing in the event
sPreviousPageScript = Application.GetPageScript (sCurrentActivePage, "On Mouse Move");

-- Set the AddToPageScript value
sAddToPageScript =[[
if IsInRect(e_X, e_Y,  Flash.GetPos("Flash1"), Flash.GetSize("Flash1")) then
	DLL.CallFunction("AutoPlay\\Docs\\DisableMouse.dll", "DisableRightClick", 1, DLL_RETURN_TYPE_LONG, DLL_CALL_CDECL);
else
	DLL.CallFunction("AutoPlay\\Docs\\DisableMouse.dll", "DisableRightClick", 0, DLL_RETURN_TYPE_LONG, DLL_CALL_CDECL);
end
]]
-- Add the mouse move and flash right click disable to the end
sNewPageScript = sPreviousPageScript .. "\r\n" ..sAddToPageScript;

-- Set the event's script
Application.SetPageScript(sCurrentActivePage, "On Mouse Move", sNewPageScript );

I'm having an error !?!
"attempt to index local 'm_tblPos' (a nil value)"
Here's also the stripped-down *.apz.

EDIT: Now it is
EDIT2: Sorry, now it's the good one.

[RizlaUK]

you dident set the right name in the script, the object you created is called "CoverFlow" and the object in the script is called "Flash1"

edit, sorry...change "Flash1" to "jsdakjdasadsdgdfkglka" ... lol, like the name

edit...again

thats pertty dam neat, just having a little play.....i like it
