Great work.
I’m a newbie, starting to learn Flex 4. I tried using this code with a list that has data provider as the .lastResult of a CallResponder (I’m using Remoting to get data from a php service).
I get the image name and path from the php service. Then create the ‘Source’ path for the bitmapImage using a simple method like this getThumbs(folder:String, picName:String):String.

First I tried to display using a simple item renderer to display the thumbnails with pic name, and was successful in displaying it perfectly.

But when I use your code, nothing is showing up in the list. Ofcourse I changed the {data.bitmap} and {data.name} to point to the function {getThumbs(data.folder, data.pic_name)} and {data.pic_name} respectively. But I still get nothing in my list
Can anyone point out to the possible issue here?

@marcelo Use the fillMode instead of resizeMode.

Very cool effect, might be nice if it works in the TileLayout view, could be really cool for music application views (Album artwork) etc….

Very nicely done.
The Style tips and the setLayoutTransform() – in your video – are really nice.

Thank you very much.

PS Also loved the whiteboard view of the magnifier algorithm.
