Can I show the load progress of sprite Atlas?

Is it possible to show the loading progress of a png sptire atlas and its json file?

Something like we used to do in flash with totalBytes and loadedBytes?

As far as I know, this isn't really feasible because there's no way to know how big the file being downloaded is.  It's possible to get the `header` information from the request to get the total number of bytes downloaded already, and then compare that to some hard-coded value about the size of the value (or fetch the size of the file via some back-end request) but that seems fragile and too heavy-handed.

Most Phaser games show progress as a percent of total files downloaded (not great if you've got a big sprite atlas, or large music files, but it's something at least)

Here's my example of how I show progress of loaded files:

The important line is `this.load.setPreloadSprite`.

Thanks Cudabear.

i can use the total number of bytes downloaded as I already know the total size of the atlas. Can that information (bytes downloaded) be obtained from Loader or other Phaser object?
