IDE :: Progress Bar Component - Load Bar Doesn't Show Any Percentages?
Aug 3, 2005
I have a Flash site that I'm designing. The movie that I'm working with is the main movie into which my external .swf's will get loaded into. Now in the very first frame of my main .swf I have the progress bar component setup running in manual mode (I'm running in manual mode because I'm not using the loader component in conjunction with the progress bar. I figured that I wouldn't need the loader just yet because this is the progress bar for the main movie and not for an external .swf...) with this code:
Code:
var kalarahProgress:mx.controls.ProgressBar;
kalarahProgress.mode = manual;
kalarahProgress.indeterminate = true;[code]....
Now when I test it in FlashMX 2K4 Pro using "Simulate Download", everything works fine EXCEPT: Theres this white box that shows up right where my progress bar is in the first frame. After the progress bar loads (itself) then, you actually see the "candycane" indeterminate load bar and then after my other frames in the movie loads, it goes into my second frame and everything is cool.How can I make that white box go away? I tried using actionscript that would make the progress bar invisible until after it finished loading and then go to visible, but when I tried that, the component never came back visible. I just need to make that white box go away, it's taking away from the "beauty" of everything else. Also, my load bar doesn't show any percentages. It just flashes "loading" until after the rest of the frames are loaded. How can I get it to show the percentage of whats loaded so far?To download a copy of my .fla, just click here.

I am developing a audio player in flex. I need a seekbar kind of like on youtube's video player. To implement the basic seek functionality the HSlider component is enough. But I also want to show the stream progress on the seek bar. (youtube colors the already streamed part of the seekbar red). Is there a way I can achieve the same? drag and drop audio player component with play/pause and seek functionality.

I'm trying to set up a preloader to show the load progress of the main swf, which has all of it's assets embedded. I found the factory class method as described on bit-101, but no load progress ever seems to show. The swf loads fine, but the bytesLoaded is always equal to bytesTotal and therefore the preloader is never called.
[Code]...
This correctly calls the Factory class first, and then instansiates Main and calls init(). But as I mentioned above the preloading is never shown as it seems to be loading everything straight away.Is this a problem with the way I'm embedding the images or because I'm testing locally?

why the preloader script below might not be working correctly in all browsers? It definitely loads the files properly, but the progress bar does not show in firefox. It just shows a blank screen until the files are 100% loaded, then the enter site logo appears.
I have tried the following things:
1. Using relative vs absolute file paths for the external swfs makes no difference to the behaviour.
2. Changed publish settings to export AS classes in other than the first frame - didn't have any anyway. No change.
3. Unchecked "export in first frame" for absolutely everything. Tried both checking and unchecking this for the actual loader_mc. No change.
I'd post my fla instead of code, but I'm using Flash 8 and can't save any earlier than MX2004 and people don't really seem to look at them that much when I post them. If anyone would like to see, I will upload.

I've been having a hard time for some days now trying to make a progressbar in AC3. I searched the web and tried several different approaches and attempts but nothing works. I hope I can get some input from here now...
The main portion of the applicataion is working. It's only when I try to use AC3 to control the jumps in the timeline the problem occours.
This is my AC3-code:
import flash.events.*;import flash.display.Loader;stop();addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, myFunction);var p_loader:URLLoader=new URLLoader();//addChild(p_loader);
[Code].....
As I run the code all the trace-statements is printed. But the bytes is 0 all the time. I guess this has something to do with the main problem. I tried to simulate the download-process, but in this way not even the "kirupatxt.text = "TESTING";" is printed in my dynamic textfield.

I have a SWF file that is the first frame of the movie and it's only purpose is to load in another SWF and show text corresponding to the progress of download completion. When I test the movie (Simulate Download) it just simulates without showing my text with percentage complete. The only way I can get it to show, is if I add a button to click to make it show. How can I get it, so that when someone opens the movie, it will start the download process, show the percentage, and then upon completion, start the UILoader movie?[code]...

I know how to setup a preloader and I have that working. But when I debug the flash application and simulate a download, it has a blank background until a few seconds have passed. I know it is "downloading" the swf file and I'm wondering if I can show a progress bar for that, or do I need to have the swf file as small as possible and pre load everything needed and have all assets as a separate file I fetch? I found something with ProgressEvent.PROGRESS but this only loads after the flash file is finished downloading.

Discovered yesterday that the preloader I've been working with (loads external SWFs into levels based on this tutorial) which works fine on a local preview and IE, is having some major issues in Firefox. I thought this was a little bizarre at first but have since discovered that it could be something to do with 4 bytes that IE ignores but Firefox has a problem with. I've been searching for a solution that I can use pretty much constantly since then, and I'm stumped. Here's a link if you want to see it in (in)action: link
In IE, everything is good. Page loads, preloader starts at the bottom of the progress bar and progress is acurate. In Firefox, page loads, external swfs DO preload but progress bar doesn't display. When swfs are 100% loaded, the full progress bar appears with my "click to enter" link. But people will definitely have left the page thinking nothing is happening by then.

Has anyone seen the issue with the progess bar, when uploading on a system running Windows 7.The progress bars show 100% immediately as the upload is happening, and the site looks like its frozen out - but its not, the upload finishes and the onComplete event is fired! So the upload is working, but not the progress bar.I am not even sure who's problem this is... is it MS, or Adobe

trying to load a JPG. Here is my code:
import fl.controls.ProgressBar;
var pic_loader:Loader = new Loader();
var my_pb:ProgressBar = new ProgressBar();
my_pb.source = pic_loader.contentLoaderInfo;
[Code]....
The image loads but it does not "take the place" of the "pic_loader" movieClip like it did in As2. The main issue is I am getting this erroe message:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert loader@40fad881 to flash.display.Loader.
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

I have a fla file that loads a slide show from an XML file. The xml file contains info about each slide. There's over a 100 slides so the loading takes some time. However I'm not getting actual load progress. It traces nothing until after the load is complete and then it shows the progress that it should have traced one by one, however it traced them all at once on the complete. Because it's not firing the onProgress correctly my preloader is rendered useless. Am I doing something wrong on is this a bug in Flash?
