Showing a message when collection has finished loading

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 87

Hi,

 

Does anyone know if it's possible to show a message when the collection has finished importing data from the datasource? 

I have a collection with 13500 records on start of screen. I want to notify the user when the collection has imported all items.

    Hi @Gundi76 ,

     

    How is the import taking place and where?

    You can set a variable.

    Set(Showloading, true);

    your collection

    set(Showloading, false);notify("collection loaded successfully",notificationtype.success,2000")

    The import is taking place when a user navigates to a specific screen, say "Screen3".

    Thanks @Himanshu_90677 ,

     

    Where do I write set(Showloading, false);notify("collection loaded successfully",notificationtype.success,2000")? 

    I have added the first part of the formulae (Set(Showloading, true);Mycollection) on the OnVisible for a specific screen where I want the collection to run.

    Thanks @Himanshu_90677 . This worked :).

    However, I would prefer that the notification would be displayed in the middle of the screen (if possible)

    Hi @Gundi76 ,

     

    You need to create a container on full screen that will be visible and hidden based on a variable and pass argument whatever you want display in some textbox. 
    Hope that makes sense
