Hello, This code Is not exact it is to show what is happening.
myLoader :Loader = new Loader(); myLoader.load(new URLRequest(filename)); // loads a imagefile then in a function var mc1:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); var mc2:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); mc1.addChild(myLoader); mc2.addChild(myLoader); At this point I figure I have two movieclips with the same image in them. mc1.width = 100; mc1.height = 100; mc2.width = 200; mc2.width =200; mc1.x = 0; mc1.y = 0; mc2.x = 150; mc2.y = 0; addChild(mc1); addChild(mc2); at this point I should see two versions of the image side by side on the screen one bigger than the other. However what is a happening is that only the second on appears as the first looks like it somehow becomes the second one. If I only addChild(mc1) then it appears at 0,0 at the size 100,100; if I only addChild(mc2) then it appears at 150,0 at the size of 200,200 but if add them both then only the second one appears. what is going on here??? _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
