When I'm creating the image, and adding it with addChild(imageObject), if I don't set some values for width and height, it will not display. Can I find out the original width and height of the picture after it has been displayed this way? As a quick remark, if I use parent.addChild(imageObject) (where parent is Application), the image displays without any width and height set (i'm using Flex 2), but i would like to have each picture displayed inside the corresponding class. Thanks!
