How does the ResourceManager know to use the immediately above it embedded file? Specifically if I add the following code to ResourceManager I can get a button to access the WaterTex but don’t understand why it works (i.e. I’m not even using the right jpg name):

[Embed(source='../media/Water1.JPG')]
public static const Water:Class;
public static const WaterTex:TextureMaterial = new TextureMaterial(new Texture(new Water().bitmapData));

Furthermore can you confirm that my inference as follows is correct?
Line1. Embed the file in the swf
Line2. Create a reference to that file in the code by declaring it as a class
Line3. Create a TextureMaterial named WaterTex by taking the bitmapData property of the Water class . . . ???? — I don’t get this process even if it works

Thanks in advance
