    Detect Right Click

    I dont think there is an answer to this question.

    In Flash 8 you could detect a right click (yes I know its useless in Flash normally) by simply watching if

    Key.isDown(2) is equal to true.

    With the new Keyboard class this is not possible.

    Is it possible to detect a right-click in AS3 or have Adobe removed it completely?

    Sorry I don´t know but I wonder why the right mouse button is not customizable in Flash?
    At least why is it not optional?
    The right click could e.g. give extra control feature for flash games and the possibility to create customized right menus with different layouts.

    It is possible to create custom right click menus still. But detecting right mouse has always been a hack. I guess they just got rid of it.
