Re: FLASH: OT: Disable Print Screen around a Flash Presentation

[Marc Pidoux]

Humm... i would say than you will need to do some hard programming for it both

for pc and mac. Sounds not easy at all not only because of the "print screen"

key but because they are some softwares specially made for screen shot which you

can assign any keyboard short cut to "print the screen" or a part of it...


Basicly you have to catch the key event "pint sceen" and to assign a null action

to it.


Cheers
