Thanks Jonathon and Eduardo for your answers, I'll get them implemented.

Re: [Flashcoders] How to add bitmaps from my library to the stage AS3?

2008-06-19 Thread jonathan howe 
Here's the function I use (it uses getDefinitionByName  Class because it
lets me get bitmaps in externally loaded swfs as well):

  public static function getBitmapAsset(assetName:String):Bitmap {
   try {
var ClassReference:Class = getDefinitionByName(assetName) as Class;
var data:BitmapData = new ClassReference(0, 0);
   } catch (error:Error) {
trace(AssetManager:: attempted to instantiate class (Bitmap) that was
not found (asset misnamed or does not exist in loaded libraries ,
assetName, error.toString());
   }
   var instance:Bitmap = new Bitmap(data);
   return instance;
  }

 Hello there, thanks for checking my post. I have a bunch of jpgs that I've
 imported into my library and have given class names, they default to extend
 the BitmapData class. When I try and instantiate them I get an error message
 saying I need to pass them 2 arguments. Here is my code:

 var formatImg = new LibImage();

 var image:Bitmap = new Bitmap(formatImg);

 mainMC.addChild(image);

 Could someone let me know the correct syntax for doing this?
 As I am using a document class I think I may need to use the
 [Embed(source='myPhoto.png')] syntax also

 Thanks!

IIRC, because your LibImage extends BitmapData, it needs the 2
parameters required by the BitmapData constructor (width and height).

var formatImg = new LibImage(10, 10);

2008-06-19 Thread Ashim D'Silva 
When you call a Library class (eg:LibImage()), you need to give it 2
parameters which represent the width and height of the BitmapData
class. Here however, they dont do anything. So simply call :: new
LibImage(0, 0);
