Smoothing bitmap dynamically loaded through xml

Hi there,

Trying to set the smoothing of a dynamically loaded, through XML, JPEG set to true using AS2.

I've seen an example of that would do this with this code:

createEmptyMovieClip("myMC",getNextHighestDepth()) ;
loadBitmapSmoothed("mypic.jpg",myMC);


in my code I'm loading a series of products from an XML file. Each bit of information for each product gets loaded into a seprate array...

I have a 'zoomy box' image, which loads an image, but at 200%, which I want to smooth...

so the code =

nZoompic1[i] = (childs.childNodes[EEE].childNodes[i].childNodes[18].firstChild.nodeValue);


Any ideas what the syntax would be for getting it to work?

That's where you use smoothing, setting that param to true:
public draw(source: Object, [matrix: Matrix], [colorTransform: ColorTransform], [blendMode: Object], [clipRect: Rectangle], [smooth: Boolean]) : Void

I think I've phrased my question wrongly... its more like this that I'm after...

I understand what you're after and that is the method you want. I used draw() a couple of years ago on a photographer's website where (loaded) jpgs get resized dramatically. Same issue, they won't look good when not smoothed.

Here's how (fully commented):

PHP Code:

---

import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
function myCopy(pic) {

    // create mc to draw to
     var mc = this.createEmptyMovieClip('mc', this.getNextHighestDepth());
    // bitmap info
    var bmp = new flash.display.BitmapData(loadListener.myWidth, loadListener.myHeight, true, 0xFFFFFF);
    // draw image to canvas
    
    bmp.draw(pic);
    this.picparent.container.attachBitmap(bmp,0,null,true);
    
    //just to test add a slight rotation - comment out
    this.picparent._rotation = -10;
}

// create the movieclips
// first the temporary mc where you load the initial image
this.createEmptyMovieClip('temploader', this.getNextHighestDepth());
// then a movieclip where you'll create your canvas
this.createEmptyMovieClip('picparent', this.getNextHighestDepth());
// finally the actual movieclip where your image will get drawn
picparent.createEmptyMovieClip('container', this.getNextHighestDepth());



var loadListener:Object = new Object();
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();

mcLoader.addListener(loadListener);

loadListener.onLoadStart = function(target_mc:MovieClip):Void {
     // make the temporay mc invisible
     target_mc._alpha=0;
}
loadListener.onLoadInit = function(target_mc:MovieClip):Void  {
    // get the image dimensions
    this.myWidth = target_mc._width;
    this.myHeight = target_mc._height;
    
    // when the image is fully loaded copy it with smoothing to the final container
    myCopy(temploader);
    
};
function preload(myClip) {
    //loding fumction
    mcLoader.loadClip(myClip,temploader);
}

//Start loading your image
preload("mj.png");

Paste this into an empty .fla. Just update your picture's name at the end.
