Define each of the subcomponents, and their properties, in a separate class file so that the application is broken down properly into individual objects.

Any variables you define from embeds and want to use in your main application will have to be passed to your Main app as a variable, as I did in Step4.<br /><br />And yes, a progress bar is easy! I setup a preloader animation that had 100 frames (just a progress bar filling up) and told it what position to go to with the following code:<br /><br />var getPercent = Math.round(loaderInfo.bytesLoaded / loaderInfo.bytesTotal*100);<br /><br />if (art) art.gotoAndStop(getPercent); I moved all my embed tags to the preloader and it works fine from there.

And is there an option to get progress percent? How does this work when the doc class has embed, etc? And is there an option to get progress percent?
