Customizing preloader (information displayed)

[MarekMularczyk]

Hi,

I am creating a simple preloader using Flash Components. The preloader displays the information about how much content has been loaded (in bytes and %). Here is the extract from the code:

function progressHandler(e:ProgressEvent):void

{

var percent:int = loadWindow.percentLoaded;

progress_txt.text = String(loadWindow.bytesLoaded) + " of " + String(loadWindow.bytesTotal) + " bytes" + " \n " + " (" + percent + " % loaded);

}

How can I change the information being displayed from bytes to kB?

divide bytes by 1024 (and you'll probably want to round):

function progressHandler(e:ProgressEvent):void

{

var percent:int = loadWindow.percentLoaded;

progress_txt.text = String(Math.round(loadWindow.bytesLoaded/1024)) + " of " + String(Math.round(loadWindow.bytesTotal/1024)) + " kB" + " \n " + " (" + percent + " % loaded);

}
