Spinner
Extends:
Displays a progress animation at the center of its Canvas while things are loading or otherwise busy.
- Located at Canvas#spinner.
- Automatically shown while things are loading, however may also be shown by application code wanting to indicate busyness.
- Spinner#processes holds the count of active processes. As a process starts, it increments Spinner#processes, then decrements it on completion or failure.
- A Spinner is only visible while Spinner#processes is greater than zero.
var spinner = viewer.scene.canvas.spinner;
// Increment count of busy processes represented by the spinner;
// assuming the count was zero, this now shows the spinner
spinner.processes++;
// Increment the count again, by some other process; spinner already visible, now requires two decrements
// before it becomes invisible again
spinner.processes++;
// Decrement the count; count still greater than zero, so spinner remains visible
spinner.process--;
// Decrement the count; count now zero, so spinner becomes invisible
spinner.process--;
