Embedding or loading assets in flash

The best way to get at a bitmap is to upload the bitmap in your SWF, which is handled
in two different techniques, based on your compiler. First, if you are using Fold Designer, the
mxmlc compiler through the control range, or the Fold compiler as an option in the Flash
IDE, you can use the upload metatag to upload your bitmap resource, as was mentioned in the
“Introducing Bitmap” area previously this part.

If you are using the Present IDE, you can transfer the bitmap into your collection and move it for
ActionScript (in this situation, perhaps as the category LogoImage). As these two techniques are not
consistent for all conditions, we will not use them in the illustrations in this publication. Please
see the Fold or Present certification for further details on these techniques.

No issue your strategy of option for embedding, you can instantiate the bitmap using the
class constructor and thrown it as a Bitmap. Since Bitmap is a DisplayObject, you can then add
it immediately to the display record for rendering:

var logo:Bitmap=new LogoImage as Bitmap;
addChild(logo);
The strategy we will use to accessibility bitmaps in our illustrations, and the one you saw in the
previous part, is to use the Loading machine category to fill in a bitmap at playback. This performs the
same no issue your compiler or progression atmosphere. Generally, Loading machine, which is a
DisplayObject itself, is a wrapper that you can add to the present record and location, range,
rotate, set awareness, and so on, while it a lot displayable information, like a SWF or bitmap graphic,
asynchronously behind the curtain.
var loader:Loader=new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,imageloaded);
loader.load(new URLRequest(imagePath));
However, we will not be including the Launching machine to the present record in our illustrations, although you
certainly could (if all you are doing is loading and showing, there is no purpose why not).
We will need use of the hidden bitmap if you want to accessibility its bitmap information, so it is
best to pick up this from the Launching machine example once the bitmap completely a lot and add this directly
to the present list:
private function imageloaded(evt:Event)
{
var loaderinfo:LoaderInfo=evt.target as LoaderInfo;
var bitmap:Bitmap=LoaderInfo.content as Bitmap;
bitmap.x=100;
bitmap.y=100;
addChild(bitmap);
}

how to load a bitmap and cut into pieces using ationscript 3.0

Loading a Bitmap A Loader object is a special version of a Sprite that pulls its data from an external source. You need to pair it up with a URLRequest, which handles the network file access. Here is a simple class that loads a single JPG file and places it on the screen. After creating a new Loader and a new URLRequest, we pair them with the load command. The entire process takes only three lines of code. Then, we use addChild to add the Loader object to the stage, just like a normal display object like a Sprite: package { import flash.display.*; import flash.net.URLRequest; public class BitmapExample extends MovieClip { public function BitmapExample() { var loader:Loader = new Loader(); var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("myimage.jpg"); loader.load(request); addChild(loader); } } } It is positioned in the upper-left corner. Because the Loader object acts like a normal display object, we can also set its x and y position to center it on the sc...

You want to store information in memmory using flash sharedObject

Local shared Objecct are to Flash what cookies are to web browsers but more so. some developers because they allow you to store large amounts of data and store and retrieve.This is mainly using for saving "username" and "Passwords". var example:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal( "example" ); The static getLocal( )in shared object are both created and opened for reading. You want to add data to a SharedObject use the following code. // Store a username value to the example shared object. example.data.username = "myname"; You can store several datatypes to the shared object's data property, as follows. example.data.exampleArray = new Array( "a", "b", "c" ); example.data.exampleDate = new Date(); example.data.exampleObject = { key1: "example", key2: -12, key3: null }; You want to save data in a Shared Object to the client computer. var flushResult:String = example.flush( );
