Update control without "thinking" icon

[David]

Sometimes i would like to update control without displaying spinning icon

Is there a way?

 

Thank you

Hi,

The spinning icon will appear only if you are using RadAjaxLoadingPanel:

I tried to eliminate loading panel by doing the following:

 

<telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="ddlValueOfBenefitStreamByYear">
                    <UpdatedControls>
                        <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="grdValueOfBenefitsByYear" LoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1"/>
                        <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="lblValueOfBenefitsByYear"/>
                    </UpdatedControls>
                </telerik:AjaxSetting>

I still see spinning wheel above lblValueOfBenefitsByYear.

I also tried to expand panel across whole page by assigning Modal="true" to panel, which didn't work too

Hi,

By setting LoadinPanelID in the AjaxSettings you are showing the spin icon. To prevent it from appearing update the AjaxManager Settings as shown below.

<telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="ddlValueOfBenefitStreamByYear">
                    <UpdatedControls>
                        <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="grdValueOfBenefitsByYear"/>
                        <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="lblValueOfBenefitsByYear"/>
                    </UpdatedControls>
                </telerik:AjaxSetting>

Also make sure that you are not setting DefaultLoadingPanelID to the AjaxManager, because this property will also show the loading icon. Another solution would be to delete the complete RadAjaxLoadingPanel declaration from the page and not set loading panel for the updated controls.

DefaultLoadingPanelID was a culprit!

Thank you very much
