when I publish a project in SWF output format and open it in a browser, there is a context menu available when right-clicking the slide. It includes options like magnify, quality, printing, settings etc.
Hi, Sebastian -- Thanks for reaching out with your question! Would it be possible for you to share a screenshot of the menu you are describing? And can you please share a bit more about the environment in which you are testing your output?
Thanks for sharing that image. There isn't a way to disable that in Storyline as it's specific to the users browser and Windows environment, so I'd have to defer to the community for suggestions on ways to stop the user from seeing that.
Storyline handles the SWF file in the story.html file and starts it in the configured environment. It also sets width, height, alignment, window settings and so on.
I'm sure there isn't a way to turn it off within Storyline - as for editing the code, that's something I wouldn't even know where to begin, nor am I able to assist with. Hopefully someone in the community can assist with that!

The context menu looks like this:

It appears when right-clicking the SWF file.
I'm testing on a Windows 8 system in various browsers.

Ashley, are you sure about that?

This is an excerpt of my story.html file

There should be some setting in there turning the menu off.
Hi Sebastian
I googled and found this link - not sure if it will help with your issue

Found this also, Wendy.
The story.html file created by Storyline looks different though, see my post above.
Not sure where to fit in the code mentioned in your link.

Add trigger:
Execute Javascript when slide timeline begins:
document.addEventListener('contextmenu', event => event.preventDefault());
Win.
Thanks Shane for sharing in this discussion! It's a bit older, but I'm certain the idea will help others who come across it!
