Hi ActionScripter1,
If I am not wrong you are not using feature of a document
class in Flash file.
I have modified the class given by you to set it as a
document class
to run this code you have to do following things:
1. Update the class with the class pasted below.
2. Remove all the code about preloadManager from the first
frame.
3. set your 'Document Class' property to preloadManager
As per my opinion this should be the way to implement a
preloader.
In this class you will have access to each and every object
placed on stage. and here 'this' refers to 'stage' only.
//Updated Class
package {
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.*;
public class preloadManager extends MovieClip {
public static var l:Loader = new Loader();
//CONSTRUCTOR for preloadManager Class
public function preloadManager()
trace("This is the start point of your programme")
startPreload('123.swf');
public function startPreload(swfFile) {
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,
preloadLoop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
preloadComplete);
l.load(new URLRequest(swfFile));
}//end startPreload
public function preloadLoop(e:ProgressEvent):void {
var perc:Number=e.bytesLoaded/e.bytesTotal;
//percent is on my stage as a dynamic textField
//Error 1120: Access to undefined property percent
//how would I access this or pass it as a display reference
to my class?
percent.text=Math.ceil(perc*100).toString();
}//end preloadLoop
public function preloadComplete(e:Event):void {
removeChildAt(0);
percent=null;
addChild(l);
}//end preloadComplete
}//end class
}//end package
