TextField.multiline 693
Description
Property; associates the ContextMenu object contextMenu with the text field my_txt. The
ContextMenu class lets you modify the context menu that appears when the user right-clicks
(Windows) or Control-clicks (Macintosh) in Flash Player.
This property works only with selectable (editable) text fields; it has no affect on nonselectable
text fields.
Example
The following example assigns the ContextMenu object menu_cm to the text field news_txt. The
ContextMenu object contains a custom menu item labeled “Print” with an associated callback
handler named
doPrint(), which performs printing operations (not shown):
var menu_cm = new ContextMenu();
menu_cm.customItems.push(new ContextMenuItem("Print...", doPrint));
function doPrint(menu, obj) {
// "Print" code here
}
news_txt.menu = menu_cm;
