BusyIndicator QML Type

The busy indicator should be used to indicate activity while content is being loaded or the UI is blocked waiting for a resource to become available.

The following snippet shows how to use the BusyIndicator:

BusyIndicator {
    running: image.status === Image.Loading
}

BusyIndicator is similar to an indeterminate ProgressBar. Both can be used to indicate background activity. The main difference is visual, and that ProgressBar can also present a concrete amount of progress (when it can be determined). Due to the visual difference, busy indicators and indeterminate progress bars fit different places in user interfaces. Typical places for a busy indicator:

• in the corner of a ToolBar

• as an overlay on top of a Page

• on the side of an ItemDelegate
