Resizing dynamically loaded images Flash AS3 - image

Question

I have a series of banners (standard sizes) which all need to load the same corresponding image for each slide. I can load them fine but I want the image to match the size of the container MC that the image is being loaded to, is that possible? Either that or to set the height/width manually...
Everything I have tried doesnt work, here is the code for the working state (where it just loads the image which stretches across the stage)
Code:
var myImage:String = dynamicContent.Profile[0].propImage.Url;
function myImageLoader(file:String, x:Number, y:Number):StudioLoader{
var myImageLoader:StudioLoader = new StudioLoader();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(file);
myImageLoader.load(request);
myImageLoader.x = -52;
myImageLoader.y =-30;
return myImageLoader;
}
propImage1.addChild(loadImage(enabler.getUrl(myImage),-20,0));

Answer 1

You can resize your loaded image after the Event.COMPLETE on the LoaderInfo (contentLoaderInfo) of your URLLoader is fired, so you can do like this :
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest('http://www.example.com/image.jpg');
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, on_loadComplete);
function on_loadComplete(e:Event):void {
var image:DisplayObject = loader.content;
image.x = 100;
image.y = 100;
image.width = 300;
image.height = 200;
addChild(image);
}
loader.load(request);
Edit :
load_image('http://www.example.com/image.jpg');
function load_image(url){
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, on_loadComplete);
function on_loadComplete(e:Event):void {
add_image(loader.content);
}
loader.load(request);
}
function add_image(image:DisplayObject, _x:int = 0, _y:int = 0, _width:int = 100, _height:int = 100){
image.x = _x;
image.y = _y;
image.width = _width;
image.height = _height;
addChild(image);
}
Hope that can help.
