This plugin allows you to add your own branding to the Flash Player context menu (right click menu), while preserving the mandatory “About Flash Panorama Player” link.
Read more for extra info, instructions and download link.
It’s an improvement of a previously available plugin, as such it offers a few extras:
- First, you don’t have to add the “About Flash Panorama Player”. the plugin adds it automatically!
- Second, you can hide the default Flash Player options (Zoom in, Zoom out, etc);
- Third, you can add separators to the context menu;
- Fourth, you can add disabled items (user can’t click, but the text is there);
- Fifth, open your links in a new window, same window or in a frame NEW IN v1.3
Apart from that, is exactly the same as the previous plugin except that the maximum number of items you can add to the context menu is 14 (Adobe maximum is 15 minus the “About FPP” line).
First add it like a regular plugin
layer_30 = fppcontextmenu.swf
Then add a parameters block like this:
<FPPContextMenu>
©gogopixel = http://www.gogopixel.pt
go360™ = http://go360.gogopixel.org|_self
separator
Built using: = disabled
hidemenu = true
</FPPContextMenu>
pretty self explanatory, but if you have any questions, just ask 
UPDATE:
if you want the link to open in a new window or in a frame just add a | followed by the keyword _self for the same window (check example above) or the name of the frame.

Very nice! Is it possible to add commands in the menu. As f.ex. go full screen? This can be usefull in autotours.

Hmm, not yet, but I could look into it
The problem is differentiating the links from the commands, but stay tuned

Is it possible to put information at the top of the contextual menu, specifically my copyright info and link to my site?
Is it possible to turn off the About FPP? I doubt it but I have to ask.
“Second, you can hide the default Flash Player options (Zoom in, Zoom out, etc)” How can I do that?
What is the point in adding “Built using: = disabled”? All I see is that it adds a grayed “Built using”
Is there a list of “the default Flash Player options” that can be hidden?
*Thanks* for creating this useful plugin.

all the parameters used are a demonstration, you can replace and add
all the ones you like by the order you like, so you could place your
copyright notice on top or not
The plugin looks at all the lines and looks for a string that equals another string (name = url)
it assumes that the first string is the text to show on the context menu
and the second string the link to associate to the first one.
The only exceptions to this are a few keywords:
“separator” – when it finds this word it stops looking for the second string, and adds a separator
(thin line between menu options)
“hidemenu” – when it finds this one it knows that we’re dealing with the default options and will
turn them off if the second string is true, or on if it’s false (but if we want them on we don’t need to add this
line as by default it leaves the options)
Finally if the second string is “disabled” it will add the first string but it won’t link to anything and it will be grayed out.
(usefull to add information without linking to a particular URL)
And you’re not limited to 3 menu options like in the example, you can add up to 14 options
About the “About FPP” line, I’m sorry but it’s not possible to remove it, it’s implicit in the FPP license that we
must leave this line, except if we buy a special unbranded license.
Hope it helps

commands to the context menu would be fine…something like:
Further Panoramas:
Restaurant = global.go_restaurant();
Nice work!!!
