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" wr

[flexcoders] BitmapData from asset embedded in external stylesheet swf

2012-05-11 Thread flexwdw
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 t

I starting using robotlegs about a year ago and I really like it. It's by far my favorite framework (mvc, dependency injection) for as3. I have used it for pure as3 and flex projects. As far as using it for small projects, it can be worthwhile because of the convenience methods that it provides.
