Hey all, I have what will surely be a simple question for you. I
instantiated a filled up an Array in my Main Class. How can I read that
Array in another Class?
Thanks

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] BitmapData size limit
Hi Charles / Bill
It is a hard limit of object within Flash. It is similar to the hard
limit
of image sizes within Director as well. It has nothing to do with memory
use
but rather they way the app and player were programmed.
I wasn't aware of the limit in Director - any idea what it is?
In Director..
newImage = image(6000,6000,16) -- bloody big
put ilk(newImage) --> image
put newImage.width --> 6000
In Flash
var newImage = new BitmapData(3500,300) // not so big
trace(typeof(newImage)) --> undefined
trace(newImage.width) --> undefined
Bill, what you described very similar to what I'm trying to do, in my
case I have a set of 7 images each 500 X 300 and I thought I'd assemble
them in a single panoramic imag, display it in a single movieClip and
handle the scrolling with copyPixels and a mask
What I'm doing now is just putting them into individual clips spaced 500
pixels apart and scrolling the parent clip behind a mask - not using
BitmapData at all. Works OK I guess, just seems less tidy soehow:(
Cheers
David

No I didn't give the answer. I can understand why 2880 X 2880 might
be considered excessively big, but to have 2880 pixels as a limit for
a single dimension is silly - unless there is some other reson I
don't yet understand. And if another reason exists, then I want to
understand what it is.
For example, if I have an image object 2881 X 10 pixels, that would
be only about 280 kb. Why can't I create such an object?
I don't want to scale my image up because I know it will degrade.
Thanks
