The script is what holds things from playing until all is loaded and also _tells_ a shaped object (this case a rectangle) to fill in proportion to that load progress …

…You want it longer ? - you have to stretch it (your rectangle border :!: )out to the size that you want it else they won’t match

[inEdit:: due to I was thinking of a beginFill method at first]
