Re: Loading Multiple images

I do have some incentive to learning FlexJS because I like how Flex works. Thats if FlexJS is similar to Flex and actionscript. Not sure why I do not like how HTML works. I was an original member of the HTML writers guild but as soon as Swing came out, I liked it much better. And Flex and Actio

I finally found an answer. Now I wonder if this was what you were saying all along and I was too focused on adding the event listener rather than thinking of scope. The down side is that I ended up adding four listeners to add one that I needed. So here is how I did it. in the tab or NavigatorC

Re: Loading JPG bitmapdata. Something like Embed but at runtime

Turned out to be a bug. Got egg in my face I had created a function called setOffset which when I created it, it was intended for after creation settings and so in that function, I call update. Later, as I changed how I created my 3D image, I ended up using that function in the create process.
