may set the height and the width of your image component. either to fixed size or to values from yout loaded image.
then you can set -horizontalAlign="center"- and the -verticalAlign="middle"- props of the image component to center your image. you dont need a wrapper component like a hbox or s.th. similar. when this not helps, i always set -maintainAspectRaio="true"- carsten --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "bhaq1972" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I've got a image based component i'm using as an itemRenderer > eg > > dgImage.mxml > ------------ > <mx:Image> > etc > </mx:Image> > > its all working, but the images look large and blurry. > > However, if i wrap with an hbox eg > > <mx:HBox> > <mx:Image/> > </mx:HBox> > > the images look perfect.
