Spinner Control syntax for usage

[westerdaled]

I did have go at trying to use this earlier after I dragged the control on to a screen.

I am guess this syntax is not the way to use this control.

spnCallStoredProcedure.Visible =true;
spnCallStoredProcedure.IsLoading = true;
ClearCollect(colDatasources, 'PowerApp->GetSomeThing.Run().ResultSets.Table1.Value);
spnCallStoredProcedure.IsLoading = false;
spnCallStoredProcedure.Visible =false;

Should I refactor the call to use this syntax - just don't know how this references the above control?

"Spinner (0.0.18)'":

    IsLoading: true    
    Visible: true

Hi @westerdaled,

Thanks for reaching out.
From the syntax, I am assuming that you want to make use of the spinner control which needs to appear until a PowerAutomate has completed its run and need to know the syntax to be used.

Here is an example - sample code:

UpdateContext({ var_showLoader: true }); /*Some code - PowerAutomate Run for example*/ ClearCollect(colDatasources, 'PowerApp->GetSomeThing.Run().ResultSets.Table1.Value); UpdateContext({ var_showLoader: false });

Where 'var_showLoader' will define whether Spinner should appear or not. This value need to be passed to IsLoading Property.

More on this here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/guidance/creator-kit/spinner#configuring-spinner-loading-behavior

Hope this helps.

Ah thanks for the replying. I think when I last built a simple component , I set properties in the way I previously described. Hence the confusion. Thanks again.
