I’ve loaded a picture into a movieclip, and I need to return the width of the picture. The problem is, I’m getting the width of the movieclip - zero - rather than the width of the picture, which should be 200 or so…

I’ve loaded the image into the movie clip like this:

```auto
picture.loadMovie(image_address, 1)

```

So how do I now return the height/width of the image in the movie clip, and set it to a different value?

Thanks
