B4J Library [B4X] [XUI] [B4xLib] SD LoadingIndicator

Star-Dust · Jan 9, 2021

This library is an update of this source based on @Erel's code (here)
New indicators in the shape of Heart, Infinity, Bubble have been added and some bugs have been fixed.

NOTE: You can use this library for personal and commercial use. Include it in your projects. Attention, even if it is a B4XLib library, it is not allowed to decompress it, modify it, change its name or redistribute it without the permission. If you want to study the code, a part of it can be found in the links above. Those are public and you can use them.

Orrenda! Horrible

I was trying to imitate one I saw. I'll fix it. It does not use your library ? (nor the canvases, at the moment, just 3 Labels, but I will have to do it, so it doesn't work).

I would like to show you what I saw but underneath there is a well-known brand

Above is a link of my code that you can use from the older version of the library.
This new one has some indicators with a code that I have studied a lot and would like to keep for myself. All the others can be found in the codes I write about in the first post.

Your indicator is interesting, but I think it should tighten in the center and not in the lower right. It does not maintain the proportions of the squares and the frame or border as you reduce in size must also be reduced proportionally

Per questo ti ho detto che è orribile, hehehe.
This is why I wrote it is horrible!

The intention was to get a different animation from that; that was the first attempt, without thinking 2 seconds.

Anyway now I'm discovering something... probably a bug or... I'm completely stupid! I will let you know.

Already discussed with Erel, and not allowed. Otherwise we would have published the bas files.

B4xlib is published for these reasons:
1. Best for the compiler. Changing compiler version to older libraries versions may have problems. So there are no problems
2. You use only one file for all platforms and not one for single platform
3. In the case of B4i, if you use the Builder, you need to ask for permission from erel to build a library. With B4xLib it is not necessary

The latter reason is the main reason why I use the B4xLib.

P.S. It is clear that there is a risk, but going to publish changes as Oparra did seems excessive to me.
It's like stealing a neighbor's bike and walking in front of the window with the stolen bike .... At least hide ... Then if the neighbor calls the police, don't complain

I understand and respect your comments, regarding your B4xLib (MIT license or another?), I know there is time and work in the development of adding new spinners to the published @Erel, and good job @Star-Dust.

I wonder:
Can the B4xLibs published by @Erel be decompressed, to add, modify and adapt them to particular needs?

Tips
- It will work properly in debug mode but will not be smooth. Should look good in release mode.
- You can change the duration of a single cycle. The default is 1000ms. For some of the types such as Arc 1 and Arc 2 it makes sense to change it to about 2000.
- See the code. Shouldn't be difficult to add more types of animations.
- In B4A you should add this code in Activity_Resume:

Regards,

Thanks for understanding.
For Erel's Libraries, you should ask him.

I asked for the source of a compiled library and he gave it to me. So he will probably say yes. But the important thing is to respect the developer and ask.

Many of my sources are open and free, others I have chosen to keep closed. However you can access the sources of the previous version that I made them public and they will surely be useful to create your own custom

Complimenti bel lavoro

Hello.

@Star-Dust

How can I place the object ?
Left / Top does not exist. (except in the designer)

regards Frank

It would be enough to set (in the library!) mBase as Public instead of Private.
At that point you could write:

B4X:

SD_LoadingIndicator1.mBase.Left = 100dip

I just did and I am attaching the library with the small change; I suppose and hope @Star-Dust has no complaints and puts it in his first post

Star-Dust · Dec 31, 2021

Update 0.03

Added Left, Top, Height, Width and Visible properties

FrankDev · Dec 31, 2021

hi Star-Dust /LucaMS

thank you for the customization!

my processes unfortunately require so much processor power that the loading bar no longer moves.

You know the answer to your question

Star-Dust said:
In the majority it is not needed. If I find a sensible way I will insert it.

Please do not open or access the sources of my libraries. Even if it is a B4XLib library, it is not allowed to decompress it, modify it, change its name or redistribute it without the permission.

?

I hadn't read it. My intention, however, was to help a member of B4X at the time, quickly, knowing that the change would be useful to everyone and that you would have nothing against it.
I certainly didn't add that change for my personal interests.
I just made that microscopic change - change the visibility of mBase from private to public, and attached the changed library, so you could just grab it and attach it to your first post.

It wasn't really the case that you wrote that post!

Rest assured that I will never even touch one of your libraries again.

Thanks for your understanding, you already wrote about this in this thread. You probably don't remember it, but if you read on the first page you will find your interventions.

I appreciate the good intention, but it would not be fair to @oparra if I had not given him permission but granted it to others.
I consider it necessary in compliance with what I asked @oparra

Is it possible to turn the rotation clockwise and add an animation similar to this (B4A wrap)?

Star-Dust · Jun 29, 2023

my library doesn't have this animation, but everything can be done but at the moment I don't have time

Ilya G. · Jun 29, 2023

Maybe it won't take that long time to do a clockwise rotation?

Star-Dust · Jul 8, 2023

Update rel 0.04

Added Follow Arcs animation
