#Add a Wait Indicator to a Project

Follow the steps below to add a Wait Indicator component to an application:

  1. Use a DevExpress Project Template to create a new Blazor Server or Blazor WebAssembly application. If you use a Microsoft project template or already have a Blazor project, configure your project to incorporate DevExpress Blazor components.
  2. Add component markup to a .razor file: <DxWaitIndicator></DxWaitIndicator>.
  3. Write code that manages the Wait Indicator’s visibility.
  4. Configure other options (see sections below).

#.NET 8 and .NET 9 Specifics

Blazor Wait Indicator supports static render mode to indicate progress with streaming rendering. For other features, you need to enable interativity on a Razor page and allow the Wait Indicator component to execute scripts and display data.

#Display a Wait Indicator

Use the Visible property to show/hide the Wait Indicator when an operation starts/finishes.

The following example imitates a lengthy operation. During this operation the Button becomes disabled and the Wait Indicator appears.

Razor
<DxButton Enabled="!isSending"
          Click="Send"
          RenderStyle="ButtonRenderStyle.Secondary">
    <div class="d-flex">
        <DxWaitIndicator Visible="isSending" />
        <span class="mx-2">@Message</span>
    </div>
</DxButton>

@code{
    bool isSending = false;
    string Message => isSending ? "Sending..." : "Send";
    private async Task Send() {
        isSending = true;
        await Task.Delay(3000);
        isSending = false;
    }
}

#Customize Appearance

Use the CssClass property to apply custom styles to the Wait Indicator.

Razor
<style>
    .my-indicator {
        opacity: 0.5;
    }
</style>

<DxButton Enabled="!isSending"
          Click="Send"
          RenderStyle="ButtonRenderStyle.Primary">
    <div class="d-flex">
        <DxWaitIndicator Visible="isSending"
                         CssClass="my-indicator" />
        <span class="mx-2">@Message</span>
    </div>
</DxButton>

@code{
    bool isSending = false;
    string Message => isSending ? "Sending..." : "Send";
    private async Task Send() {
        isSending = true;
        await Task.Delay(3000);
        isSending = false;
    }
}

You can also customize the component’s content. Use the following API members:

AnimationType
