I am not sure because I am not familiar with AIR and files, but to get
BitmapData you usually need a source, I don't think AIR will be able to
join up the source with a reference to a file without you actually
opening up the file somehow.
For Flash / Flex, you have to load it with Image / Loader from either an
absolute path or a relative one. I guess similar rules apply to AIR,
you just get access to the file system here...
Sorry I can't be of more help.

You mean Loading it using the path from resolvePath()?

You will probably need to load your file as an image/MC/similar first,
then draw that into your bitmap.

Hi list,
In an Air - Flash CS3 application I am trying to Import an image with
browseForOpen() and getting the event.currentTarget of the File Object
and
converting it to a BitmapData like this:
private function OnFileSelect(e:Event):void {
var BD:BitmapData = new BitmapData(300, 400, false);
var B:Bitmap = new Bitmap();
BD.draw(B);
addChild(B);// just in case
}
It is not working... Have I missed something?
Thanks
