Re: [Flashcoders] Getting bitmap data after successfully loading a swf file
Hi,
If your loaded asset is a swf, you cannot just access the
bitmapData property - it does not have one.
However, you can draw the contents of a MovieClip / Sprite /
DisplayObject into a BitmapData object, which you can then pass to the
constructor of a Bitmap.

You should also use the INIT event rather than the COMPLETE event
for loaded objects because your SWF may have to initialise when it's
loaded and you cannot be guaranteed that height, width and child clips
are on stage.

Re: [Flashcoders] Getting bitmap data after successfully loading a swf file
Hi all,
Just curious and I think it may shed a little light on this issue,
but isn't there a way to grab another SWFs library assets and
plug them into your own swf? If so, then you could just assign ids to
the
loaded library assets and then call on them in your swf??
I thought I remembered something about this a while back,
but I could be mistaken.
Best,
Karl

Re: [Flashcoders] Getting bitmap data after successfully loading a swf file
@ACE
You may want to separate your function calls for each type of file.
IE: using your bitmap function for png, jpg, gif, etc.
Then another function that just loads the swf files in a MC the way
they come?
But I think Henrik is right here, you cant load a SWF as if it was an
image. Its a swf. :)

Re: [Flashcoders] Getting bitmap data after successfully loading a swf file
There are several ways to get at the assets. The most obvious one is to simple ask the code in the loaded swf to give you what you want. You can use all the fancy factory patterns that you've been reading about this way. Personally I keep it simple and just store each thing in an object that I can then read from the main swf. But you don't need any code in the loaded swf at all, you can just use the getDefinitionByName function. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] Getting bitmap data after successfully loading a swf file
SWF files are not bitmaps. Stop trying to treat them like bitmaps. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
RE: [Flashcoders] Getting bitmap data after successfully loading a swf file
Hi list... I want loop through to delete certain nodes, but can't figure out how to do it. I've tried a conventional loop, for...in and for...each...in, and I must be missing something. pack dog id=1/ dog/ dog id=2/ dog/ dog id=3/ /pack I'd like to delete all instances of dog that don't have an @id, or @id==2. Any thoughts? Thanks, - Michael M. ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
