I would like to reproduce in flashLite the menu of PlayerFlashLite or other
phone appli.
For examples I use Left Sotkey to make appears a menu with some buttons, when
i press "enter" on a button an other submenu appears with some buttons. I think
there are some difficulty to come back to the main menu with joystick.
Have you some samples for phone menu in FlashLite?
Thanks

I don't personally have an example of a menu with flyouts right now. However
it sounds like you may be part of the way there already.

the way that I would probably approach it is to have the movie clip with the
flyout as a 3 frame movie clip with frame 1 being empty. when you hit the
option that should open the flyout, the movie clip will go to frame 2. Frame 2
shows the options in the flyout and has a button that listens for the left or
right arrow key as appropriate to move the selection out to the flyout.

at that point the flyout would advance to frame 3 that has the code to move up
and down the choices and the opposite directional arrow would send the
selection back to the main menu, and the flyout movie back to frame 2.

as you add movies that have buttons in them, those buttons will overshadow the
earlier buttons lisntening for the directional arrows. when the new buttons go
away again, the old buttons will be able to listen for the event again.

hope this helps
