Hi guys
I’ve been looking for a solution for hours now. I have a movieclip which contains an image. Created by doing: put image on stage, convert to symbol, movieclip type, ok.
I’d like to extract this bitmap because I want to use (somewhere else): graphics.begintBitmapFill(); but this method needs a BitmapData object and not a movieclip to create a repeating background (in my case).
So: how do I extract the Bitmap or the Bitmap data from a MovieClip?
Please mind that attaching BitmapData as a base class to this symbol is NOT AN OPTION
