[RESOLVED] Spinner Load Icon in New Form/Hide Font Flash in new Form

Hi Plumsail,

I want to add a spinner load icon when users create a new form.

Currently, the entire form loads showing users that the form is being created. Is it not possible to show a spinner icon instead so users don't see the form being created when they create a new form?

Thanks in advance!

Hello @DryChips,

When do you want to show the spinner? When user submits the form? Do you redirect user to edit form once a new item is created?

Hiya,

I want it to appear when user creates a brand new form.

So when I click 'New' in SharePoint it will create a new form.

I can see the form being created on the screen which is not good. I want a spinner animation to run and then once the form is fully ready and created, the spinner should automatically disappear and the form should be ready to fill out.

@DryChips,

This is how the form should load: you see the spinner then the fully loaded form.

This happens but the spinner only lasts for 1 second and then the form begins to render a little before it is FULLY ready.

@DryChips,

You can add your own div with loading indicator in fd.created handler and remove it in 5 seconds or more when the form is completly loaded. This is the code sample:

fd.created(function(vue) {
    $('<div id="loading">  <img id="loading-image" src="Image_URL" alt="Loading..." /></div>').insertBefore('.SPCanvas')
    $('.SPCanvas').hide()

    setTimeout(function(){$('#loading').remove(); $('.SPCanvas').show() }, 5000)
});

The main issue I am having is that when I load the form, I see a flash of the font change which is not ideal. Is there any way to not show it?

My initial thought was placing the font code at the top in the JS Editor but no luck :pensive:

  • My CSS Code is also available below...

Here is my JS code:

//This will run all the code below. [DO NOT REMOVE]
fd.spRendered(function(){

/*This code will auto-populate all the Org Hierarchy fields   
function populateFields() {
    //get departments
    var orgL7 = fd.field('Department').value.LookupValue;

    //make sure both values are selected
    if(orgL7) {
        var filter = "Org_x0020_L7 eq '" + orgL7 + "'";
        
        //filter list and get item values
        pnp.sp.web.lists.getByTitle('OrgHierarchy').items.filter(filter).get().then(function(item){
            fd.field('Speciality').value = item[0].Id;
            fd.field('Directorate').value = item[0].Id;
            fd.field('Division').value = item[0].Id;
            fd.field('Hospital').value = item[0].Id;
        });
    }
}

    //call function on field change
    fd.field('Department').$on('change', populateFields);*/
    
//This code will auto-populate all the Org Hierarchy fields v2   
function populateFields() {
    //get CostCenter
    var costCentre = fd.field('Cost_Centre').value;
    //get departments
    var orgL7 = fd.field('Department').value.LookupValue;

    //make sure both values are selected
    if(costCentre && orgL7) {
        var filter = "Cost_x0020_Centre eq '" + costCentre + "' and Org_x0020_L7 eq '" + orgL7 + "'";
        
        //filter list and get item values
        pnp.sp.web.lists.getByTitle('OrgHierarchy').items.filter(filter).get().then(function(item){
            fd.field('Speciality').value = item[0].Id;

Nothing to show here

I'm not able to reproduce that. I suppose your form is large and the loading takes more time. Could you please record a short video that demonstrates the behavior.

Put your form in a grid and hide it by default. Use spRendered and then show the grid accordingly.

Thanks man!

Anyone else who runs into this problem, use this code:

  1. Run inside fd.spRendered

  2. change .body to your class name and add display:none; in the style property.

    function showgrid(){
    $('.body').show();
    }
    //Shows grid on form loading
    showgrid();
