Re: [flexcoders] Thumbnail from screen (contents)

[Weyert de Boer]

Hi Erik,

You can easily make a "screenshot" of a MovieClip the following way:
import flash.display.*;

var thumbnailData: BitmapData =  new BitmapData( slide._width, 
slide._height, true, 0xFFFFFF );
thumbnailData.draw( slide, new Matrix() );

After you made a screenshot of the movieclip or you slide you can reuse 
it by it like:

slideThumb.attachBitmap( thumbnailData, 1);

Yours,
