Get image original width & height in actionscript - actionscript

Question

I use AS3 in Flex 3 to create new image and seem unable to get the exact size of the original image. percentHeight & percentWidth to 100 can do the job, but limitation in ObjectHandlers require me to set the image scale in pixel.
Any solution?

Answer 1

Note: this is also applicable for displaying Image original dimension without ObjectHandler control, just remove those lines that are not applicable.
After struggle hours for solution, I found my own answer thru in actionscript forum, in fact, only one solution, I surprise there was no such topic elsewhere.
private function init():void {
var image:Image = new Image();
image.source = "http://www.colorjack.com/software/media/circle.png";
image.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageLoaded);
/* wait for completion as Image control is asynchronous,
* which mean ObjectHandler will attempt to load asap
* and you are not able to get the correct dimension for scaling.
* EventListener fixed that.
*/
this.addChild(image);
//whenever you scale ObjectHandler control, the image is always fit by 100%
image.percentHeight = 100;
image.percentWidth = 100;
}
private function imageLoaded(e:Event):void{
var img:Image = e.target as Image;
trace("Height ", img.contentHeight);
trace("Width ", img.contentWidth);
var oh:ObjectHandles = new ObjectHandles();
oh.x = 200;
oh.y = 200;
oh.height = img.contentHeight;
oh.width = img.contentWidth;
oh.allowRotate = true;
oh.autoBringForward = true;
oh.addChild(img);
genericExamples.addChild(oh);
}
