ProgressBar.maximum 1011

Description

Property; the largest value for the progress bar when the ProgressBar.mode property is set

"manual".

Example

The following example increments a ProgressBar component manually up to a maximum

value of 200, at which point it stops. It displays the increment in the Output panel as the

value increases.

Drag an instance of the ProgressBar component onto the Stage, and enter the instance name

my_pb in the Property inspector. Add the following code to Frame 1 of the timeline:

/**

Requires:

- ProgressBar component on Stage (instance name: my_pb)

var my_pb:mx.controls.ProgressBar;

//Set progress bar mode

my_pb.mode = "manual";

my_pb.label = "%1 out of %2 loaded";

//minimum numerical value before progress bar increments

my_pb.minimum = 100;

//maximum value of progress bar before it stops

my_pb.maximum = 200;

var increment_num:Number = my_pb.minimum;

this.onEnterFrame = function() {

if (increment_num < my_pb.maximum) {

increment_num++;

//update progress of number incrementing

my_pb.setProgress(increment_num, my_pb.maximum);

trace(increment_num);

} else {

delete this.onEnterFrame;

}

};
