[flexcoders] Re: BitmapData from asset embedded in external stylesheet swf
I should add -- this all works with an image embedded in the code swf...it's just when I try to do the same thing from the external swf it doesn't work. I can use the asset as a cursor just fine, so I know there is nothing wrong the asset too. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "flexwdw" wrote: > > I can't seem to figure out how to get the BitmapData for a resource embedded > in an external stylesheet swf.

[flexcoders] BitmapData from asset embedded in external stylesheet swf
I can't seem to figure out how to get the BitmapData for a resource embedded in an external stylesheet swf. I'd really like to have a piece of artwork in the swf that I can pull in via code and render into a UIComponent as a bitmap. Does anyone know how to do this? If I use the StyleManager to get a style declaration and then pull the embedded asset of it and cast it to a Class, I don't seem to be able to use that class to create a BitmapAsset like I'd expect. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. (I'm still a sad camper stuck on 3.6 btw). Thanks.
Re: [flexcoders] robotlegs
Thanks Rob. Those last minute changes being easy to make was mentioned in the last entry here for a 100 line project... http://knowledge.robotlegs.org/discussions/questions/898-why-use-robotlegs-more-elaborate-explanation-than-the-book-gives-needed Because my programs are quite small I wondered if it was overkill but I am really attracted by the structure and I am reassured by yours and Rob VanCuren's comments, so thank you both.
