Flex 1.5 - Embedbed image problem, when using multiple Flex SWFs
May 30th, 2006
I have 2 Flex applications. The first application (swf1) loads the other application (swf2). "swf1" has an embedded image inside it, when I try and access the embeded image in "swf2" nothing happens.
The best way to explain it is with some sample code (source can be found here):
swf1:
XML:
-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
-
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml" xmlns="*">
-
-
<mx:Script>
-
<![CDATA[
-
// Logo Asset(s)
-
[Embed(source="green.gif")]
-
var myImage:String;
-
-
private function doneLoading():Void {
-
-
}
-
]]>
-
</mx:Script>
-
-
<mx:Loader id="BaseContainer"
-
source="swf2.mxml.swf"
-
width="100" height="100"
-
scaleContent="false" maintainAspectRatio="false"
-
complete="doneLoading()"
-
borderColor="0x0000FF" borderThickness="2" borderStyle="solid"/>
-
-
<mx:Image source="{ myImage }" borderColor="0xFF0000"/>
-
</mx:Application>
swf2:
XML:
-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
-
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml" xmlns="*">
-
-
<mx:Image source="{ parentApplication.myImage }" />
-
<mx:Image source="{ parentApplication.myImage }" />
-
<mx:Image source="{ parentApplication.myImage }" />
-
<mx:Image source="{ parentApplication.myImage }" />
-
<mx:Image source="{ parentApplication.myImage }" />
-
-
-
</mx:Application>
I am looking for an example of this working or somebody to tell its just the way it is???
