Hey flexers, We're working on a project currently where we would like to allow users to add photos from their local drive to the stage. We also want to support gigantic photos. I understand the max bitmap size is 4095x4095 (or dimensions that equal the same number of pixels) in flash player 10. If the user has a photo bigger than this, we'd be happy to size the image down to this limit and allow the user to work with their image at the restricted size. However, I'm stuck trying to figure out how to size down the image before creating a bitmap object. I have a bytearray of the image data but now I need the image resized down to the bitmap limit before creating a bitmap from the bytearray. Somewhat a chicken-or-the-egg problem. Does anyone have a nice tool or method to accomplish this? Anyone know how Buzzword does this?
Thanks. Aaron
