Question

im sure this is completely simple , infact i’m sure i have already seen the code for this somewhere , i just cant remember for the life of me where.

all i want to do is add the little swirl image thing whilst loading. can anyone point me in the right direction

Thanks

Answer 1

You want a UIActivityIndicatorView

UIActivityIndicatorView *spinner = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(135,140,50,50)];
[spinner startAnimating];
[self.view addSubview:spinner];
[spinner release];

You will probably want to hold on to a pointer to it though so you can remove it later.
