Yes, BMP Obj remains in memory, you need to have a reference to that Object
so you can dispose it later.
import flash.display.BitmapData;
var bitmap:BitmapData;
function createBitmap():Void {
bitmap = new BitmapData(500, 500, false, 0xFF0000);
_root.attachBitmap(bitmap, 0);
}
clickObj = {};
clickObj.onMouseDown = function()
{
_root.bitmap.dispose();
}
Mouse.addListener( clickObj );
createBitmap();
