in the publish settings, html tab, uncheck the display menu box. that’s all. Only when you publish the movie as html too. ---

Actually the better method is: ```auto stage.ShowMenu = 0; ``` You won’t have to go through all that publish stuff. If someone finds the .swf link, and you didn’t add this code, they can still zoom in whether you published as menu or not. This code will make the movies menu minimized and un-controllable :). ---

place it in the first frame of your timeline, which would be a frame action. (eg, make a layer called AS, click in the first frame of the timeline in that layer, press f6, click on the keyframe that was just created in that layer, go to actions and add stage.ShowMenu = 0; to the actions window. Run movie and when right click should only show “about flash player”. ---

Soma - make sure you copy and paste the code into the MAIN timeline of frame ONE. Then, when you right-click, only settings and about flash player will show :). ---

Select the first frame of your timeline and open the Actions panel. In the Actions panel insert this:[AS]Stage.showMenu = false;[/AS] There you go! This is basically a recap. of what everyone else has been telling you. ---

Oh you should’ve told us that you were using 2004! No wonder. 0 is no longer false in 2004. God everytime I try to help I always end up giving the wrong information :(. ---

I don’t have MX2004 myself but i’ve seen tutorials where you can completely get ride of the menu itself and also where you can change the right click menu so it has your own right click tabs which sounds pretty cool… check this link out [http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.asp?p=102024](http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.asp?p=102024) Hope i was some how helpful ---
