Hello everyone,
Please forgive my newbie question. I am still learning my way around. I've downloaded the developer version of the Web AppBuilder and installed it on my machine. I also was able to add a widget to AppBuilder. Now I would like to be able to modify the code in order to add a loading image over the map area and remove it once the map is ready. I found looking at the DOJO tutorials a possible solution but I am not sure were the CSS or code to change. Can someone point me to where or what files need to change? I thought it may work in the Layer list widget on show Layers but don’t know if this is where I need to make the change.
Thanks in advance.
All,
Here a Map Progress Indicator widget:
Map Progress Indicator Widget Version 1.1 - 7/3/15
This is a very simple task, but the lack of documentation makes it imposable for a beginner.
Thank you.
I will be releasing a map progress indicator widget tomorrow or first thing next week.
Thank you guys for your replies,
The JavaScript API busyIndicator will work, my map has a lot of layers and gives the users the impression that it’s stuck, due to that it takes 5 to 15 seconds to render. Where can I catch any event when the map is rendered and is ready, for example after loading or they have zoomed or panned?
Thanks in advance!
Joaquin,
Are you just trying to change the existing loading gif? if so you can just replace the loading.gif in
\server\apps\<app#>\jimu.js\images
Additional loading parameters can be configured in the index.html in the main-loading div

The JavaScript API has a busyIndicator module that will do the work for you. Here is a link:
