I have a set of dropdown menus built in flash. I want to use the wmode=transparent option to make the background of the flash object transparent so that the menus do not occupy too much space.
I use hitTest to decide whether to show or hide the menu. The problem is, in the transparent mode, the space between adjacent menus is no longer part of the flash object(U can verify this by right clicking in that space…the Internet explorer right click menu appears instead of the flash player menu). This, for some reason affects the working of hitTest and the menu does not hide until the mouse cursor goes back to the flash area…
any solutions???
