ActionScript 3.0 :: Custom Preloader For XML Images?
Jun 1, 2009
I've been working for a little while now trying to make a portfolio site for myself and I'm almost done but I'm having one little issue with preloaders. (There are more things not finished, but they're just things I haven't gotten around to doing, I think).The thing I'm trying to do is create a custom preloader for an image gallery that loads each image.You can see an example on in the 3D Architecture section on the site here:(Yes, I know the main preloader is working fine, I'm talking about the one in the 3D Architecture section.)Here is the code I'm using for that frame:
Code:
//Specific Actions: Frame 5 (3D Architecture) code:
//All code is 3D Architecture specfic.

I'm trying to build a custom FLV preloader for the FLV PLayback component, but every thread refers to using the NetStream.bytesLoaded (non-component FLV command). What are you supposed to do when using the FLVPlayback component??I tried this - but it didn't work. myVideo is the FLVPlayback component.
Code:
myVideo.getBytesLoaded = loadedBytes;
myVideo.getBytesTotal = totalBytes;

After browsing the internet for a while I found everyone shows you how to make a custom preloader with your own graphics which is all fine and good but what about the people who just want to use the components and be done with it? I know I would have to use the UILoader and another
component. How to use the necessary components to make a preloader? I have quite a big swf and I need one.

I need to build a preloader for a swf which size is about 3MB, I tryed and tryed giving up at the end to integrate a preloader in the swf itself because it shows up only when fully loaded, no way to fix this thing, looks like if you embed fonts there's no way to stream the swf for some reason. So a moved to another way, the classical , for me, one I wrote a simple, light swf which works as preloader and I load in it the big swf, the 3MB one. Every thing works, connection to the MySQL DB is ok, parameters are passed successfully to the Java scripts etc.. the fact is when it comes to the loading of custom classes crashes brutally, the errore code is #1009, whenever I declare an instance of a custom class in the AS3 of the 3MB SWF it crashes.[code]

I am trying to build a preloader class for loading external content (images in a gallery). I have no experience in this area and I could not find many examples of making preloader classes. I was wondering if and how would it be possible to trace bytesLoaded and bytesTotal from within the preloader custom class. I was trying to pass the Loader's variable into the class and then try to trace the bytes but no luck with that.

My project Home Page contains several 'heavy' instances on stage. So as to entertain a visitor while all they are loading I start preloading transition. However despite all my efforts my custom preloader delays displaying preloading progress for a while: althoug preloader wheel rotates, progress value displays as 0% for several seconds - from 1-3 seconds in normal browsers up to 5-6 seconds in Safari (which I consider to be worst one for Flash). if someone could clarify me whether I should listen for ALL the children loading progress so as to fix this issue or just never mind (e.g. every button on stage consists of two VideoPlayers, one TLFTextField, one Timer, two Sprites and one attached sound; now I'm listening for two VideoPlayers loading progress only...)

I am following this page to create a custom preloader extending Sprite to load an animation SWF, but it is not working (the animation SWF is not displaying): [URL]. I know the Animation.swf file is okay, because if I load it into the main app it displays and runs. The preloader works if an image is loaded by the preloader instead of the animation SWF.
test.mxml (main app)
BTW, I typically have many more lines of ComboBox in the app to force the preloader to display, but limiting number of lines here.
CustomPreloaders.SparkAnimationProgressBar.as
package customPreloaders {
import flash.display.;
import flash.events.;
import flash.net.;
import flash.utils.;

How do I use a dynamic preloader [say a circular preloader that I've designed myself and not the ProgressBar preloader] to load an external jpg. Obviously, the jpg would be contained within a movie clip, say, 'imageHolder'. In short, I'd like this dynamic preloader to load the external jpg into the movie clip 'imageHolder' placed within my swf.All that needs to be figured out is how to attach any dynamic preloader to load external pics.[code]

This thing is giving me a headache. See code below. The issue here is that my first image preloads OK, but then the second image gets jammed at 25-30% and never loads. The third and forth image preloads OK and the same issue with the fifth image. And sometimes the issue is on the last 4 images.

I'm trying to load multiple preloaders, for some reason the following code only works on one movie clip.
for (var i:int = 0; i < 12; i++)
{
var mc = new MovieClip();
var pre = new PreLoader();[code].....
This only works on the last movieclip created when I need to have each movieclip have it's own preloader.

Would someone be able to direct me in the right direction as to how to go about adding preloaders for images on a rotatong menu.
I am not after any kind of complex animation loader, just simple text that says 'Image Loading'
So I guess to simplify it, it could just be a peace of text that disappears when the image loads in.....am I making any sense?[code]...

I am using images that are fullscreen and resize to fill the window as adjusted. So I want the prelader to also move across the window according to the bytes loaded. At the moment it is moving across the screen but not relevant to bytes loaded, it just zips straight across the screen and then you are left waiting for the image to load with no indication of how far it is away from appearing. Here is the code for the preloader:

Code:
var holder:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
holder.addChild(loader);

There is powerful HTMLLoader component for AIR wrapped in mx:HTML for Flex.I want to supply images manually (ideally from bytes) for mx:HTML, which will display my generated contentThe point is to pack all resources in the application without external files.

First of I'm using Flash CS4 and AS 3.0 I'm trying to make a photo gallery for my website. I have the gallery all setup and made and now I need a preloader for loading my images. Right now my gallery is setup like this:
-A list of clickable thumbnails. (20 thumbnails)
-A UILoader
-You click a thumbnail and it loads an external image into the UILoader.
Actionscript: I have an array with 20 images. I have 20 different event listeners for each thumbnail.
The eventlistener looks like this:
thumbs.thumbs1.t1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent. CLICK, loadP1);
The function looks like this:
[Code]....
The UILoader is inside 2 moveclips because of a transition effect I have. The buttons are also 2 movieclips deep because of motion tweens.specific reason.

I am experimenting with AS3 and I created a page that loads around 35 images to the screen from XML and randomly scatters them on the stage. I know how to use the ProgressEvent to show the loading for each individual image, but I am trying to figure out a way to show it as a whole. The one think ive tried & acheived is to have total number of loaded images divided by total number of images. So when 15 of 30 images are loaded its 50 %, etc.... But Id like to have a more effcient preloader that shows the actually loading.
