[svg-developers] Re: Modifying custom context menu actions

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Jeff,

the context menu is a feature of the Adobe SVG viewer. It isn't defined in the 
SVG 
language.

Therefore SVG viewers implement different controls.

The Adobe SVG viewer is going to die but native SVG implementations in browsers 
will 
take over. Opera9 and Firefox already have native SVG implementations, Safari 
will follow 
and eventually Iex as well.

So, to use context menues in all the applications out there you'd need to 
program it 
yourself or find some existing js code out there.

 As to the direct question below.  I tried using
 xlink:href=javascript:myfunction() as the menu item which failed in
 IE.  Would be interested in finding a solution to this as well.

 Yes, I've been wondering about this myself.  Perhaps I've overlooked
some
 posting explaining it but I can't find any documentation about custom
 context menues.  Well there is one exception of the AV3 release
notes making
 a passing mention of contextMenu in a table entitled Interface Window.
 This is described as a read-only attribute in the Type column
but the
 Comment column says Modifyable XML description of viewer's
context menu
 which seems to be a contradiction.
 
 How exactly are you supposed to do this?

 Subject: [svg-developers] Modifying custom context menu actions
 
 
  hi all
 
  i agree with postings requesting more plug in documentation.   a
  couple specific example questions:
 
  i've created a custom context menu per other postings here.  however,
  i can't figure out the syntax, if there is any, to pass the context
  menu jscript functions.
 
  item action='myFunction()'Selection/item doesn't work.  so my new
  menu can't do anything custom - unless i want to reuse the
  predefined  menu actions such as 'ZoomIn'.
 
  also, can special characters be used in a custom context menu -
  modifying the font or inserting graphics?
