Hey is there an actionscript to make an image repeat for background purposes???

I am used to using HTML and just letting the background repeat - is there a way to do this in flash? a code or something? and also, if there is… what are some attributes?

For instance u can make the image repeat in just the X axis or just the Y axis.

Thnx a bunch 😃
