I cleaned up the component a bit, should now work as you'd expect, trying to
smooth whatever is smoothable and falling back silently otherwise.

Keep in mind that to be able to smoothen your images you need to access the
bitmap data of your loaded image, this has some security implications as you
can only read that for images inside your security sandbox.

This also implies that your player will have to try to download the
crossdomain.xml file for the image you want to make smooth before you actually
smooth it.  Afterwards, it'll be too late.

Also, if you are not careful and you try to access the bitmap data but you
were not allowed to do so, you'll get an ugly security violation runtime
error.

Check out this example:
http://rojored.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/docs/examples/image/i01/bin/Main.swf

The first image is allowed to be loaded as data by the crossdomain.xml in my
site.  But if you change the URL to the other image for which bitmap data
access is forbidden without turning off smoothing, you'll see the error I'm
talking about.

Here's the smoothing part of the component:
http://code.google.com/p/rojored/source/browse/trunk/src/com/rojored/view/controls/Image.as#410

Feel free to grab it if it works for you!

Cheers,
G.

You need to turn on bitmap smoothing. Look at the BitMap class in the help 
docs. eg

  var bitmap:Bitmap = imageObject. content as Bitmap;
  bitmap.smoothing = true;

Hello,

On my website i have lots of pics that i load and then resize to fit different 
SMALLER sizes.

The smaller pictures quality is really crapnot acceptable by my 
customer...not even by me...i never saw a program resize picture into smaller 
with so less quality like this in my whole life.

So my question is...is there a way to add a little more blur or a little more 
antialiasing to those pics so they look acceptable.. .even not perfect? is 
there a .quality property for those pics??

I can resize the pics on server...but server would explode...
I'm looking for a MXML or a easy AS3 solution instead.

thnx a lot!! :)
