ActionScript 2.0 :: Percentage Loading Bar But For A Movieclip?
Mar 10, 2005
i need to do a loading bar for a specific movieclip, not the whole file.
i have 9 clips to load, and i dont load them all at once.
on my main timeline i have 9 movieclips and 9 labels to jump to them but i need to have a loading bar for each..
here is an excerpt of what i used to have the whole movie to load, but it does not work if i use a movieclip in the timeline..
bytes_loaded = Math.round(_root.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(_root.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
[Code].....

I just built a website entirely in Flash Catalyst CS5. After adding a few more states the file size got bigger and the loading time increased. On average, it takes about 10 seconds for the site to load on my connection. Till then all you get is a white page and the spark preloader shows up when you scroll down. All I want is a simple preloader with a percentage indicator, loading bar, and maybe my company logo.

This is just a tad difficult to explain but here goes. You start out in the intro scene and it plays a movieclip (the intro) and below it is another clip that is a loading bar and percentage. Now on the main timeline it is checking to see if the percentage is 100 or greater. When it does it goes to the main movie. This all works fine. It's when you get to the main movie that it messes up. All the buttons and a/s work fine but 3. Its sorta hard to explain... Um ok here is the a/s that is on each button unless they dont open another menu.
[Code]...
Now I probably could use a for statement for the first bunch but that's not the point of this explanation now is it. Normally the movie is in frame 1 but when you click a button that opens a new menu it goes to frame 2 and makes sure all menus already open get closed. Hence the reversal of any open m/c's. Then if none are open it opens the new menu using the "per" value from the button. Now for the problem. When I click any one of the 3 buttons it sends the whole m/c back to the intro scene. Why? Any how do I fix it? If you need anymore info I'll be glad to post it.

Is there a surestarter preloader in AS3 with CS4? Meaning here, showing a progress bar or percentage value before loading the main swf, right away at the start of the loading.I tried 3 different versions:
1- I used the code from a video (and accompanying files), and simply changed the content.swf to my own swf file (rename my swf content.swf), so that the original code would load my swf instead of the original content.swf. (original content.swf was too small to see anything before loading, because my loading speed is too fast).Here is the code from the original preloader (loads a small swf which then loads the main swf file):
var l:Loader = new Loader();l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);l.load(new URLRequest("content.swf"));
function loop(e:ProgressEvent):void{ var perc:Number = e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal; percent.text = Math.ceil(perc*100).toString();}[code].....

I have a preloader in my file.At the end of the preloader completion event, i am loading 12 swf files from outside using individual loader. Now problem is, i need to display loading percentage in text for preloader. But, the percentage shoud cover all swf loding also. it mean, from preloader, starts, it has to start from 1 and end of the 12th swf loader completetion,it should display 100%.

I've been searching to find a simple answer to external preloaders, but it seems there are many ways to accomplish this with ac3.
I am new to as3 and this is what I've come up with so far:
green_mc.scaleX = 0;
black_mc.scaleX = 0;
var loader = new Loader();
loader.load(new URLRequest("zibapistachiointeractivesmfilesize03.swf"));
[Code] .....
Everything else is working except my dynamic text that should also be calculating the % of loading.

I can change my database text, and call it from my flash through php. But it doesn't seem to translate over the '%' sign.
I know this is probably not database specfic.
"Text=Test text&Comment=Take 10% off all products"
The variable Comment only comes out as:
Take 10 of all products.
Do I use an escape character?

I'm trying to make a simple animated movieclip act as a preloader for a larger website, and have its play reflect the percentage that has been loaded. I've seen a lot of code for various preloaders that involve text or a movieclip being scaled, but not anything regarding controlling the playhead of a movieclip.
This is what I thought would work. PreLoaderMC is the class name of a MovieClip symbol in the .fla's library. I've omitted the Loader stuff [code]...

I'm trying to load a SWF movie into a target movieclip called blankmc. The SWF movie is loaded from an absolute URL (eg. [URL]/img/20042005113934movie3.swf ) My Loading Progress code fails to detect the SWF file size. However the same code works perfectly for a JPG! Essentially the .getBytesLoaded() and .getBytesTotal fail to work. Why is this and how can I get it to work for loading SWFs?

Im making a movie with a menu that loads movie clips according to which menu is selected simple enough. However, the newly loaded movie clip also needs to allow the user to load another movie into the main movie effectively swapping the first movie clip with the second. This needs to be done without using the main menu.

I'm currently developing a Flex application with an accordion containing 2 canvas: one of them containing a DataGrid and the other one a form.When the user clicks on one of the DataGrid's rows, it opens the accordion on the second (form) canvas. However, I'd like to open the second part of the accordion only by half, so they can still see the data in de datagrid.

I have a question, I have been reading on _root. ... My question lies with the use of a percentage pre- loader.
_root.getBytesTotal();
If I place this in the first frame of movie A and load movie A into Movie B, movie B being the main movie, will the get bytes loaded give me total bytes of B, or A... My initial thought is it will get the total of B seeing how I am using _root.

getting my zoom function to display the percentage that has been zoomed in or out. here is the code for the zoom function. this function works, how to display the zoom percent... like if its at 50%, or 120%, etc...
also how can get it to add some easing when it zooms, so that it gives a smooth zoom in & out effect, i've tried a few things, but didn't work...
//zoom function
//this is percentage at which the mc loads on

Using this preloader w/percentage from the kirupa tut.
bytes_loaded = Math.round(this.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(this.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
this.loadBar._width = getPercent*100;
[code]....
I'm having trouble calculating the getBytesTotal method to return less that the total. In other words, I'd like to start the movie before it has fully loaded. Lets say, 75% loaded then gotoAndPlay.

Is there a way I can do it so at a certain percentage of the preloader a image shows up? Like lets say from 0-49% the background is black then once it hits 50% an image shows up as the background, and stays there until 100% so basicly 0-49% = black background and 50-100% = show an image as a background Is that possible? Also, here is my current code I would like to add that option to: [php]stop(); this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
loading); function loading(e:Event):void { var total:Number = this.stage.loaderInfo.bytesTotal var loaded:Number = this.stage.loaderInfo.bytesLoaded; bar_mc.scaleX = loaded/total;

I would like to use animateFlourish.fla (see attached file) as a percentage loader in the first frame of a movie where the beginning of the animateFlourish animation equals 0% of frames loaded and the end of the animation equals 100%.I have tried the percentage preloaders tutes here on Kirupa and on Senocular; but, none of them work.So far, I have been able to get the animateFlourish.fla to work as a preloader; but, it keeps replaying the animation until the frames have loaded: http:[url]... I would like it to play once timing the animation with the % of loaded frames.
