[CLOSED] desktop ajax loading question

[susanz]

Hi, I am new to ext.net. We need to use desktop as start point for our MVC app. Our initial load takes a while. Is there a way to let desk top show up first and have busy mask displayed while loading start menu and all items (like Loader for ext.net panel) ? my current code shows blank screen during load.

Also like to know if all feature in your web form demo are supported by MVC. Our app will heavily use grid, message bar, status bar, tab & menu component. we prefer to use MVC but want to make sure we won't stuck on some thing that only supported by web form.

Thanks

Maybe the <StartupMask> can help.

<ext:ResourceManager runat="server">
    <StartupMask Message="Loading..." />
</ext:ResourceManager>

All functionality available in Ext.NET WebForms is available in Ext.NET MVC. If by chance you find functionality that is not available in MVC, just let us know and we can investigate.

Hope this helps.

Here you are.

@Html.X().ResourceManager().StartupMask(new StartupMask() { Message = "Some Message" });
