Hi
I have a problem with loading images from an external folder.
The problem is I have 6 images and load using the UI loader.
This all works fine although I need a line of code to tell the loader it is at the last image because it trys to load image 7, and there is no image 7.

Please help, its driving me nuts. I just need a stop or, this is the last image command.

following code has been used:

Image_next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);

//variable is a container that holds some value
var imageNumber:Number = 1;

function nextImage (evtObj:MouseEvent):void
{
//Adding to the current value +1
imageNumber++;
project_aLoader.source = “images/project_a_”+imageNumber+”.png”;
}

image_back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, backImage);

function backImage (evtObj:MouseEvent):void
{
//subtracting to the current value -1
imageNumber–;
project_aLoader.source = “images/project_a_”+imageNumber+”.png”;
}

you can add a linkage name in the library such as MyObject and then just set uiLoader.source = MyObject .

How can you load something that is already in the library?

or u can add this:

loader.scaleContent = false;

it will risize the loader to the size of every image

If I use the code to load my own images, they are loaded and resized to a very small picture. How can I change the size of this picture?
