Apply mask to ImageLoader

How can I apply a mask to an ImageLoader object??

An ImageLoader is just a class that does work for you, it's not visual in any way (it's not a DisplayObject) but it does create a ContentDisplay object into which it loads your image. You can use the ConentDisplay object immediately (even before the image loads). The ImageLoader's "content" property refers to the ContentDisplay. For example:

 

var loader:ImageLoader = new ImageLoader("1.jpg");
var content:ContentDisplay = loader.content;

addChild(content);
content.mask = myMask;

loader.load();
