The line which governs the region into which the bitmap is pasted and repeated is this one: g.drawRect(0,0,w,h); which currenty represents the whole of the canvas. To effectively repeat-y you could modify the line to: g.drawRect(0,0,backgroundImage.width,h); To repeat-x: g.drawRect(0,0,w,backgroundImage.height); Well it is really a hard-coded sticking plaster approach, and so is this answer to your question…

I'm a recent advocate of Flex myself and was disappointed to discover no tiling feature. I do have one question. How would i go about restricting the tiling to the x-axis? At the moment it is tiling both x and y axis. Nice article.
