Hi All,
I have a list view which is tied to a GetList method.
In the view initialise I call the GetList method but I'm doing this Asynchronously.
The GetList will take about 11 sec to return.
I want to display an image while this method returns and once the method returns remove the image.
How can I do this, and is it possible?
Any ideas would be welcomed.
Thank you,
JohanL

Hi John,
What i understand is you need to display the image for 11 second once the getlist method returns the data, image should vanishes ! is this something you are trying to acheive it?

Yes that is correct.
What I've done for now is the following.
I added the image to the list view header and set it to be invisible by default.
I then added all the rules to load the list view into my refresh button on the form.
I also added a data label which does a count on the list.
This button will call the GetList method Asynchronously, and show the image.
I then have an OnChange on the label doing the count of the list.
As soon as the count label changes I check a condition to see if the count is >= 0 and then I hide the image.
The problem is that when the form initially loads the image is only displayed for a brief interval because at that time the count value is 0.
Unfortunately I will have the situation where the list can contain no entries so I need to cater for this as well.
After the initial load, if you click the refresh button, the image is displayed until all the items load.
If I can only get the first initial load to work then this would be a perfect solution.
If anyone has some more ideas on how to get it to work I would love to hear them.
