I hadn't thought using BitmapData, I 'll give it a try. As for loading images twice, if this is the only way then I'll have to walk it!
Many thanks Ian! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ian Thomas Sent: Friday, February 29, 2008 1:23 PM To: Flash Coders List Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] duplicate loaded image + convert object to image Stathis, No, in AS2 you can't duplicate loaded content using duplicateMovieClip. Your choices are: - to load each image again, every time you need it (isn't as slow/bad as it sounds - the cache speeds it up dramatically) - to duplicate the image by storing/copying loaded images's BitmapData - this is your best bet, if you're using Flash Player 8+ Hope that helps, Ian On Fri, Feb 29, 2008 at 11:06 AM, Kaloudis Stathis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm trying to figure out how to duplicate a clip with an externally > loaded image in it. > > Function duplicateMovieClip does not work for movieclips > with content loaded using MovieClip.loadMovie() or the MovieClipLoader > and I'm stucked and confused on how to proceed. > > > Also, is it possible to create a multi-dimentional array with loaded > images (inside movieclips) in it > and then retrieve these images? _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
