Sorry I should have been more specific. [Bindable] public var myImage:Class;
myImage = functiontoGetImage(someparam); //obtained via CSS [Embed(source="ui/nicePngImage.png")] myImage.width = 10; // no code hinting for height for type Class. myImage.height = 10; // no code hinting for width for type Class. or myImage.scaleX = .2; myImage.scaleY = .2; //if I size them anyway I get no errors but then nothing happens. the trick is, from my implementation is, you eventually have to do something like this. DisplayObject(displayIconObject).height = 10; DisplayObject(displayIconObject).width = 10; --- In [email protected], "Michael Schmalle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > It's more like you have to create an instance. > > The Class is an actionscript type like Boolean or String.
