Change default right-click context menu on <esri:Map/>

ErikEndrulat — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 16:44:41 GMT

I'm developing an Adobe Air map application. Due to security requirements, it's crucial that the application does not provide the ability to open a browser window via any menus, etc.

I just noticed that when you right-click on the map object, the context menu includes 'About ArcGIS for Flex', which opens up another window that has a link to the ESRI API site.

Is there any way to over ride this behavior?

Thanks

I think I just resolved my own question, perhaps not the most elegant solution, but it works:
to the <esri:Map> </> code block, I added:
[INDENT]rightMouseDown="{Alert.show('right click disabled')}"[/INDENT]

You can also do this. Just in case you want to add custom menu items to the map. disabling right click will not work.
