I was wondering if you might be able to get rid of the Kendo loading image on the initial page load?
My code is below.
HomeController.cs
using System;using System.Collections.Generic;using System.Linq;using System.Web;using System.Web.Mvc;namespace KendoMobileAppV2.Controllers{    public class HomeController : Controller    {        public ActionResult Index()        {            ViewBag.Message = "Modify this template to jump-start your ASP.NET MVC application.";            return View();        }        public ActionResult About()        {            ViewBag.Message = "Your app description page.";            return View();        }        public ActionResult Contact()        {            ViewBag.Message = "Your contact page.";            return View();        }    }}_Layout.cshtml
