Usage
progressBarInstance.mode
Description
Property; the mode in which the progress bar loads content. This value can be "event",
"polled", or "manual".
Event mode and polled mode are the most common modes. In event mode, the
source
property specifies loading content that emits
progress and complete events; you should use
a Loader object in this mode. In polled mode, the
source property specifies loading content
(such as a MovieClip object) that exposes
getBytesLoaded() and getsBytesTotal()
methods. Any object that exposes these methods can be used as a source in polled mode
(including a custom object or the root timeline).
You can also use the ProgressBar component in manual mode by manually setting the
maximum, minimum, and indeterminate properties and making calls to the
ProgressBar.setProgress() method.
Example
The following example loads an image into a loader and marks the progress of loading with a
progress bar that is set to
event mode. When the load is complete, a listener for the complete
event displays the name of the loader object.
