Right click position in Flex

Question

I create my own context menu inside a Canvas when the user right click, but I need to know the (x,y) coordinates in the stage.

I'm trying mouseX and mouseY , but is not working as I expected, returning coordinates of the last click (even inside a menu option), not where I clicked to show the context menu.

Is there any way to get mouse position from right click in Flex?

Answer 1

Flash prevents you from accessing the right click event.

However, you can use some javascript hacking to work around this issue. You will find several example on the web, and i successfully used this one .
