If you have a 64x64 image, you can set up a 16x16 mask:
<mx:Image width='64' height='64' mask='{imageMask}' />
<mx:Canvas id='imageMask' width='16' height='16' x='0' y='0' />Then all you'd need to do is animate the canvas to relocate when you need it to. Seems simple enough.. haha :D You could also "reverse" it by moving the image rather than the mask. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "flexawesome" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > are you able to use the mask? > > --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "whatabrain" <junk1@> wrote: > > > > Let's say I have a 64x64 image, but I only want to display one > 16x16 > > section of it.
