Indeed, it works!,
Also, trying this i´ve found a method to attach loaded movies as bitmaps... now i can create libraries of MCs!!

Thanks!

...however, this code in fact works:

import flash.geom.Matrix;
import flash.geom.ColorTransform;

function init()

 Stage.align = "TL";
 Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";

 createEmptyMovieClip("image_mc", 0);

 var mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
 mcl.addListener(this);
 mcl.loadClip("test.jpg", image_mc);
}

function onLoadInit(target)
{
 var width:Number = image_mc._width;
 var height:Number = image_mc._height;
 var transparent:Boolean = false;
 var fillColor:Number = 0xFFFFFFFF;

 var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(width, height, transparent,
fillColor);
 myBitmapData.draw(image_mc, new Matrix(), new ColorTransform());

 createEmptyMovieClip("copy_mc", 1);
 copy_mc._x = 20;
 copy_mc._y = 20;
 copy_mc.attachBitmap(myBitmapData, 0);

 image_mc._alpha = 20;
}

init()

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Load external bitmap into bitmapdata?


The problem is: I need to load a bitmap. I can´t embed the bitmap inside a
swf, because i have no control over the bitmaps.
Any other ideas?

Hey Marcelo,

I've been playing with BitmapData for the first time this past weekend
so I
stand to be corrected on what I'm about to say!

My understanding is that you can only load BitmapData from an existing
image
which is already in your library and has a linkage ID. For this reason, I
don't think you can load an image and get its BitmapData. I was thinking
there might be a workaround though...

I was going to try embedding the jpg/png/gif in an swf and giving it a
linkage id in the library, then load that swf into your master movie and
attach the BitmapData from the loaded swf's library.

Possible issues? I know you can't attach library assets from a loaded swf
into another swf so the same limitation may apply with BitmapData.
Again, I
thought a workaround for this might be to attach the BitmapData into the
swf
you've just loaded and then clone it to a BitmapData object elsewhere?

As you can see, I've been doing a lot of thinking and not a lot of doing
so
I'm not sure if this is of any help at all!

I'd be very interested to know if any of this works.

Cheers, Adrian P

Hi list!,

It´s possible to load an external bitmap (jpg, png, gif) into a
bitmapData?

Or..

It´s possible to load an external bitmap into an MC and then render that
mc into a bitmapData?

All what i tried didn´t work...

Thanks in advance!,
