Apr 28, 2010I've searched a little and in tutorials the progressbar always loads an external mc...I was wondering, is it possible to make the bar load the main movie?

Flash :: Set Up A Preloader To Show The Load Progress Of The Main Swf
Nov 3, 2009I'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?
IDE :: Progress Bar Component - Load Bar Doesn't Show Any Percentages?
Aug 3, 2005I 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.

View 2 RepliesProfessional :: Showing A Progress Bar Or Percentage Value Before Loading The Main Swf?
Jun 9, 2010Is 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].....

Flash :: Flex Component - Show The Stream Progress On The Seek Bar

May 31, 2009I 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?

ActionScript 2.0 :: F8 - Files Load, But Preloader Progress Bar Doesn't Appear
Feb 22, 2006why 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.

Create A Progress Bar (248px Wide) With A Slider That Moves According To The Movie Progress
Jun 4, 2010I have an SWF movie (1375 frames) and created a progress bar (248px wide) with a slider that moves according to the movie progress. I'm doing that next way:Calculating the distance for the slider to be moved each frame (248 / 1375) On each ENTER_FRAME moving the slider for the calculated distance The problem is - the movie ends far before the slider reaches the end of the progress bar.
I'm thinking that the distance (Step 1) is is somehow ends floored by Flash and the actual distance it moves the slider is smaller than required. That's why the movie ends, but the timeline control just passed the 2/3 of its way. My question is - is there any solution for the problem? Or any other way to go, if it's a wrong one?
ActionScript 3.0 :: Setup A Preload System That Can Load Multiple XML Files And Manage An Overall Progress Bar
Feb 5, 2010I'm trying to set up a preload system that can load multiple XML files and manage an overall progress bar but got immediately screwed by ProgressEvents not bubbling. My basic code set up is: Document Class
XMLManager extends EventDispatcher
XMLloader extends EventDispatcher
So document class up an array of xml paths and passes that to the XMLManager, that then iterates through the array and creates a new XMLloader for each path and stores those XMLloaders in another array. The XMLloader goes off and creates an URLLoader that loads the XML. It has listeners for Event.Complete, IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR and ProgressEvent.PROGRESS which is fine.
I'm getting the correct progress data in my progress handler but what I want to do is broadcast that progress data straight back up to the Document Class which I had thought would be where dispatchEvent would come in by doing something like this in the XMLloader class:

ActionScript 1/2 :: Load Movie - Randomly Load Other Swf's (individual Ads) Into Main Swf After
Apr 2, 2009I am pulling double duty with this question as it serves two purposes. I am developing a total flash controlled ad system for myself, but also need to use the same theory for a project for work.
Concept: I have a main movie (ad rotator system) that I then want to randomly load other swf's (individual ads) into this main swf after a set period of time. The random load I got set no problem. The problem I am having is to get it to move to the new Frame label of the main movie which then loads the smaller swfs. I am using the LoadMovie with nInterval time delay command in flash to load the movies.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Pause Main Timeline And FLV Component?
May 17, 2010I have a 4 1/2 minute Flash Demo: first minute is Intro Flash animation, next 3 minutes is a progressive video with a FLV playback component, and last 30 seconds is conclusion Flash animation. When I press the pause button on the FLV it pauses the video but the main time line continues to play in the back ground so that the last 30 seconds will play no matter what the stat of the FLV. If the FLV is paused the conclusion will just start to play when it reaches that part of the timeline or worse if you pause the FLV and resume it after say 30 seconds the video and the last scene sound plays at the same time at the end of the video. I have a toggle play/pause button on the intro animation that works fine and the FLV play/pause works but I don't know how to pause the end of the timeline when the FLV is paused.
