Image extends SWFLoader so you want to see how Image uses the SWFLoader code to determine the actual path to try.

Surely the problem is with Image - or does Image use the paths set by SWFLoader to resolve its own paths? ________________________________ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com on behalf of Alex Harui Sent: Thu 26/08/2010 18:33 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Loading Images into a loaded SWF I don’t see any obvious problem with your setup. Set a breakpoint in SWFLoader.as:loadContent and watch it try to resolve the URL into an absolute URL. Maybe there is a clue there.

'x35' is a folder containing the mxml file compiled by the app via fcsh. AirTricks waits for fcsh to finish, and then loads LearningObject.swf. What other params can I pass in to the swf that might help?

Are you specifying any other parameters for loading LearningObjects.swf? mx:Image has code that tries to convert relative paths to absolute paths relative to the current SWF so you don’t need to place the JPG in the AirTricks folder. It looks like the absolute path conversion is getting fooled. On 8/25/10 1:28 AM, "Julian Tenney" <julian.ten...@nottingham.ac.uk> wrote: Thanks for your help. The! loaded SWF is a flex SWF, all built with the latest stable release. It uses mx:Image Yes, using Flex 4. Paths: To Air App: C:\Program Files\Xerte 3.5\AirTricks\AirTricks.exe which loads C:\Program Files\Xerte 3.5\AirTricks\AirTricks.swf To SWF: C:\x35\LearningObject.swf To image – it’s in all these places, and it doesn’t load. C:\x35\media\DSC_0095.JPG [where it really ought to load from, or be able to load from.] C:\Program Files\Xerte 3.5\AirTricks\media\DSC_0095.JPG [where you guys are telling me it should load from, but it doesn’t] The relative path is media/DSC_0095.JPG If I execute C:\x35\LearningObject.swf it works fine. The application is an .mxml ! editor and compiler, which creates and edits mxml files, and compiles them. What I’m trying to do is load and preview the results in the application.
