Context Menu plugin for Flash Panorama Player

By popular demand, a plugin which lets you create a custom context menu (right click menu) for your FPP presentation! Insert as many menu items and links as you want (up to Adobe's limit of 15). And, it's free to download and use!

06/24/2008 update:
Also by popular demand Wink , I've updated the plugin so that you can place the "About Flash Panorama Player" link anywhere within your context menu. This caption and link are required to keep you within your license agreement for FPP (so don't remove it entirely), but can be anywhere within your menu. I cannot be held responsible for anything if you remove the FPP link from the menu.

If there are items above the FPP link, then a separator line will be added before the FPP link.

Note that the FPP caption must read "About Flash Panorama Player", for the plugin to properly add a separator.

Simply load the plugin as you would any other plugin for FPP (a la layer_60 = cl_returnToHorizon_0.1.swf) in the XML. Then create a parameters block for it similar to the below example. The caption which appears in the context menu is at left of the "=" and the URL you'd like it to go to is at right of the "=".

Any caption which doesn't have an accompanying URL after the "=" will simply not link to anything.

<panorama>

<parameters>

layer_20 = files/hotspots.swf
layer_100 = files/cl_context_menu_1.swf

</parameters>

<cl_context_menu>
yahoo! = http://yahoo.com
CheathamLane= http://cheathamlane.net
this line no link=
About Flash Panorama Player = http://flashpanoramas.com/player
</cl_context_menu>

<hotspots>

<global>

<pano></pano>

</global>

</hotspots>

</panorama>

Remember, you must include the line About Flash Panorama Player = http://flashpanoramas.com/player somewhere in the context menu block.

Demo this example here!

Download the plugin and enjoy!

Context menu updated

Hi folks:

Read above in the post for the update... Enjoy!

Thanks again to all who left comments. I've had a filter conflict going on here with the site's Drupal installation and I had to delete the post and all the comments. ARGH!

Please feel free to continue the kudos. Wink

Cheers,

Patrick

Compliments for good work!

You had to delete my compliments to you?

Well, then you get it DOUBLE here again! This is a very well done work, and I am truly impressed!

Thanks again!

linking to other panos in a multinode virtual tour?

Hi Patrick,

I wonder if the plugin allows you to link o other panos in a multinode virtual tour.

Thanks!

re: context menu plugin linking to other nodes

Hey there:

Hmm... I'm sure it could be made to do that (though it would take a little bit of finagling); Maybe there's an enterprising soul around who can take my Actionscript and make it so!

Re: using FPP context menu plugin

Hi Marian:

This Context Menu Plugin is for FPP (Flash Panorama Player), and won't work with PanoSalado.

The XML example in the post above shows the full FPP syntax for using the plugin with FPP.
