Resize image loaded via DataLoader?

[vuk 0 Likes (Newbie)]

Hello,

 

I`m using DataLoader to load swf into specific mc.

However, I need to resize it to fit certain area (150x150), like I usually do in ImageLoader, but that isn`t working in DataLoader class.

 

var queue:LoaderMax = new LoaderMax({name:"mainQueue", onComplete:processLoad});
queue.append( loader );
queue.append(new DataLoader(myImage, {name:"swf", format:"binary", width:150, height:150, scaleMode:"proportionalInside"}));

function processLoad (e:Event):void {
		trace (loadCheck);
		swf1 = new Loader();
  			corner.adHolder.ad.addChild(swf1);
  			swf1.loadBytes(LoaderMax.getContent("swf"));
}
	queue.load();

 

I must use DataLoader, since that is the only way to cache child swf, and then to control it`s sound.

So, is there a some other way to resize/rescale my child swf?

 

Thanks!

There must be something?

There is no width/height/scaleMode for DataLoader - that wouldn't make a lot of sense because it's just a generic data loader (the data could be virtually anything). But you certainly could use AutoFitArea if you want to fit a DisplayObject into a particular area - http://www.greensock.com/autofitarea/

 

Does that help?

Hello,

yes, partly...

 

But to use AutoFitArea I need to know mc size. However, I don`t know how to get it? Can you please check this code?

 

var queue:LoaderMax = new LoaderMax({name:"mainQueue", onComplete:processLoad});
queue.append(loader);
queue.append(new DataLoader(adImage, {name:"swf", format:"binary"}));

function processLoad (e:Event):void {
	if (loadCheck == 0){
		swf1 = new Loader();
  			corner.adHolder.ad.addChild(swf1 as DisplayObject);
  			swf1.loadBytes(LoaderMax.getContent("swf"));

// get size
		var rawContent:DisplayObject = swf1 as DisplayObject; //gets the image that was loaded
		var bounds:Rectangle = rawContent.getBounds(rawContent);
		trace("native width: " + bounds.width + ", height: " + bounds.height);

		corner.adHolder.ad.adArea.width = bounds.width;
		corner.adHolder.ad.adArea.height = bounds.height;
		var area:AutoFitArea = new AutoFitArea(corner.adHolder, 0, 0, 250, 50, 0x000000);
		area.attach(corner.adHolder.ad, {scaleMode:ScaleMode.STRETCH, hAlign:AlignMode.LEFT, vAlign:AlignMode.CENTER, crop:true});
		area.preview = true;
		}
}

You don't need to know the size in order to use AutoFitArea - that's kinda the point. AutoFitArea will handle fitting it into the area you define. But I didn't see any obvious errors in your code - were you running into trouble? If so, please describe.
