I'm new to Flex and reading the docs now. I'm trying to build a desktop-client photo viewer app in flex that allows users to seamlessly view local JPGs and selectively upload to the web. At the same time, they should also be able to view JPGs already uploaded to the web.
I know I want to deploy my app in a local-trusted sandbox to allow my app to access both local files and network resources. But while reading about importing/embedding images I came across the "use-network" flag limitation that says access to local or remote resources are a mutually exclusive proposition. I'm confused, can someone please explain?
