Sprite/Loader . height/width bug? Question

programming flash
1

I am loading an external image via the loader class, when I try to change the height of one of the images it disapears. (I want to stretch it) I was trying to use scaleY but I can’t get it to consistently line up. As far as I can tell it should work :h:

here is my code:

 
package
{
 import flash.display.MovieClip;
 import flash.events.MouseEvent;
 import flash.display.*;
 import flash.net.URLRequest;
 import flash.text.*;
 
 public class MakeWindow extends Sprite
 {
 
  public function MakeWindow(winName:String, winWidth:Number, winHeight:Number){
 
   var topLeft:Loader = new Loader();
   var topRight:Loader = new Loader();
   var topTile:Loader = new Loader();
   var bottomLeft:Loader = new Loader();
   var bottomRight:Loader = new Loader();
   var bottomTile:Loader = new Loader();
   var leftSide:Loader = new Loader();
   var rightSide:Loader = new Loader();
 
   topLeft.load (new URLRequest("vista_topleft.png"));
   topRight.load (new URLRequest("vista_topright.png"));
   topTile.load (new URLRequest("vista_toptile.jpg"));
   bottomTile.load (new URLRequest("vista_bottomtile.jpg"));
   bottomLeft.load (new URLRequest("vista_bottomleft.png"));
   bottomRight.load(new URLRequest("vista_bottomright.png"));
   leftSide.load (new URLRequest("vista_side.jpg"));
   rightSide.load (new URLRequest("vista_side.jpg"));
 
   var winTitle:TextField = new TextField();
   this.addChild(leftSide)
   this.addChild(rightSide)
   this.addChild(topLeft)
   this.addChild(topTile)
   this.addChild(topRight)
   this.addChild(winTitle)
   this.addChild(bottomTile)
   this.addChild(bottomLeft)
   this.addChild(bottomRight)
 
 
   this.y = 100;
   this.x = 100;
   //winTitle.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
   //winTitle.font = 
   winTitle.text = winName;
   winTitle.width = winWidth - 90;
   winTitle.height = 30;
   winTitle.x = 10;
   winTitle.y = 5;
   winTitle.textColor = 0x000000;
   //winTitle.filters
 
   topRight.x = winWidth - 90;
   topTile.x = 89;
   topTile.scaleX = topRight.x;
 
   bottomRight.x = winWidth - 90;
   bottomTile.x = 89;
   bottomTile.scaleX = topRight.x;
   bottomLeft.y = winHeight - 10;
   bottomRight.y = winHeight - 10;
   bottomTile.y = winHeight - 10;
 
   leftSide.y = 30;
   leftSide.height = winHeight - 40;
 
   rightSide.y = 30;
   rightSide.x = winWidth + 9;
   rightSide.scaleY = 364 / (winHeight - 40);
 
   //this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, winDrag);
   //this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, winStopDrag);
 
   //function winDrag(event:MouseEvent){
   // this.startDrag()
   //}
   //function winStopDrag(event:MouseEvent){
   // this.stopDrag()
   //}
  }
 }
}

Thank you for any help that could be provided :slight_smile:
