I’m using AS3.0 and nearly identical Loader code to what they have in the sample code in the docs. I can get at the Bitmap object and set smoothing to true and it all works as expected. The trouble comes when I respond to a RESIZE event when the user goes into full screen mode. This transition can come at any time during an animation sequence so I just reload the current image at the new size when I get the RESIZE event. Trouble is, rather than getting a Bitmap, I get an AVM1Movie instead. Why is that? According to the docs, an AVM1Movie is for loading an AS1.0 or AS2.0 SWF. But I’m not, I’m loading an image.
Does this make sense to anybody? Maybe it’s because I’m within an event handler?
