Hi all,

Im having problems adding jpeg images to my code, i thought i could just drag them into the library, this worked because they are now in the library however i keep getting:

Scene 1, Layer 'Action', Frame 81, Line 14

unable to resolve 'xxx.jpg' for transcoding

Scene 1, Layer 'Action', Frame 81, Line 14

Unable to transcode xxx.jpg.

I tried looking online but i couldnt find a solution!

my code is:

[Embed (source="xxx.jpg")]

var xxxImage: Class;

thanks in advance!

embed code directives should be used in class files.

for timeline coding, assign a class to your jpg (eg, JPG1), and use code similar to:

var jpg1:JPG1=new JPG1();

var bmp:Bitmap=new Bitmap(jpg1);

addChild(bmp);
