You don't attach the BitmapData, you have to attach a Bitmap object via the addChild method. To get the BitmapData onto a movieclip you need to make a new Bitmap object with the BimapData, of course you could just attach the original image.
[Embed(source="image.png")] private var imageClass:Class; private var moveiclip :MovieClip = new MovieClip(); private var image :Bitmap = new imageClass(); private var bitmapData :BitmapData = image.bitmapData; private var newImage :Bitmap = new Bitmap(bitmapData); movieclip.addChild(newImage); //Add new bitmap movieclip.addChild(image); //Add original image hth Jim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sascha Balkau Sent: 31 July 2006 03:12 To: 'Flashcoders mailing list' Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] AS3 - From BitmapAsset to BitmapData? Thanks a lot Jim! That was the link I was looking for! Maybe you can give me a hint on another BitmapData problem: How do I attach a BitmapData to a MovieClip in AS3? attachBitmap is no more and if I use addChild I get a Coercion failed again.
