    it is not a movie clip

    Sorry that is not what I'm lookin for. If you have a background 1000x100 it automatically is tiled in an html page Right!! Well am trying to find out if it is possible to do the same in flash. I am tring to minimize file size with such a large image.

    hmm... I've tried to do that in the past, but haven't found a way yet...

    Have you looked in help? I would be interested to know the answer too.

    Here's what you called being ignorant to you...

    http://www.flashkit.com/board/search...der=descending

    I don't think that that many other users have responded to your threads as much as I have!

    To simply answer your question, no! There's no way, that I know of, of tiling a background in Flash as you would do it in html. I suggested a way of replicating the effect, but you didn't like the suggestion, then fine, suit yourself man. Hope you'll get a better answer, but the way it seems to be going, I doubt it more and more!

    Furthermore, because of your attitude, I will no longer rush to try and answer your next questions, since you don't seem to appreciate my answers, and I do not wish to antagonize you more than I have already have!

    Peace on Earth!

It seems every time you post a reply you are tryin to send me to help in flash and for some reason I have a hard time learning like that. This seems to be the only way for me, find it,try it,learn from it!!!peace, wayne

    cant you just load .jpg into MC check _x and _y scale and position, then duplicate the other 999 to (_x and _y position * .jpg _x and _y scales)? theoretically?

    why dont you do it in swish? you can fill an object(shape) with an image...

    just export your swi to swf and then load from your main movie

    this may or may not be of any help, i just want to post...
