Capturing a Screenshot

You can capture the web view to bitmap data by calling the drawViewPortToBitmapData() function and providing a correctly sized BitmapData object.

var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData( webView.width, webView.height );

webView.drawViewPortToBitmapData( bd );

This process is asynchronous so the bitmap data will be updated after the capture is complete. If you need to know when the process is complete you can either listen for the NativeWebViewEvent.DRAWVIEWPORT_COMPLETE event or pass a callback function.

Using the event listener:

var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData( webView.width, webView.height );
webView.addEventListener( NativeWebViewEvent.DRAWVIEWPORT_COMPLETE, function(e:NativeWebViewEvent):void
{
    webView.removeEventListener( NativeWebViewEvent.DRAWVIEWPORT_COMPLETE, arguments.callee );

    // Use bd
});
webView.drawViewPortToBitmapData( bd );

Using the callback function:

var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData( webView.width, webView.height );
webView.drawViewPortToBitmapData( bd, function():void
{
    // Use bd
});
