FLASH: Current frame read out.

[Shaun Brazier]

Hi.


I am in the middle of making a simple pre loader, but I would like to read out the percentage of the movie that is loaded as the pre loader progresses.  Can the _currentframe property be shown as a number.  At the moment, I am trying to get the currentframe of the main timeline to read out in a text field.


I am using:


set variable /:textfield = GetProperty("../", _currentframe)


I have also tried using the current frame in basic calculations but again, had no joy.
