[font=verdana, arial, helvetica][size=2]I am dynamically Loading a .jpg to a Movie Clip. The \_mc is 160x130 pixels and the .jpg is 330 x 280.

The problem is this:  
loadMovie(“data/Image1.jpg”, Image1\_mc);  
works fine but the Image1.jpg doesn’t fit inside the Image1\_mc

Would there be a better way of importing an image to the Scene and resizing it.

I also want to make a button over effect so that the dynamically loaded image will show in a larger frame when the user wishes to see an enlargement of a thumbnail image.

So far I have used:  
\_root.Image1\_btn.onRollOver = function() {  
loadMovie(“data/Image1.jpg”, Large\_mc);  
}  
But this then reloads Image1.jpg (freshly) into the Large\_mc from the dynamic source and again fails to size the image.[/size][/font]

[font=verdana, arial, helvetica][size=2]By the way before any one says \_xscale the mc is no good for this project. Setting \_width properties of the loaded Jpegs would be great but the command doesn’t seem to effect the loaded image[/size][/font]
