I'm using Loader class to dynamically load images from server, as it's advised in "Loading content dynamically" of * <Part5_ProgAS.html>*Programming ActionScript 3.0 - Flex doc.
But there's one thing I don't understand. In example there, we have :
|
|var pictLdr:Loader = new Loader();
pictLdr.load(new URLRequest(some_url));
this.addChild(pictLdr);

- and in every example, the Loader class is automatically added to a certain container. How is that different from mx:Image? I don't have image location at compilation time, it is created in runtime. Can I point mx:Image source to computed url or not? If I have to use Loader class then, is there any way to *copy* loader content into mx:Image I have in my design? I can use mx:Image as a container and put Loader into it, but then I will loose my Image properties, like automatic scaling. What I am missing?

It is important for me, to see the image container in Flex Builder, so when I show the screen mockup to my client, he will be able to see that at this and this place there will be image loaded at runtime. Should I use SWFLoader maybe?
