Show spinner/progress while data is loading

[Mike Cohen]

I am binding the GridView to a ViewModel that is responsible for loading the data from my repository. I would like to show a spinner control while the data is being loaded. Let's suppose I have a property on my ViewModel named DataLoading. I know I can accomplish this with a style, but I'm not sure which element of the GridView I should apply the style to.

How can I accomplish this with the GridView? I can easily hide the whole GridView and show a spinner, but instead I'd like to replace the area in which rows are presented with a spinner.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mike Cohen,

You can use the dependency property IsBusy of the RadGridView. Please check the attached sample project which demonstrates it.
