How to use Adalo's spinner component?

Step 1: Open Adalo Editor

First things first, log into Adalo and open up the project where you want to add that spinner component.

Step 2: Access the Components Panel

On the left side of the Adalo editor, you'll see the Components panel. This is where all the magic happens. It's got all the components you can add to your app.

Step 3: Locate the Spinner Component

Now, either scroll through the list or use the search bar in the Components panel to find the Spinner component.

Step 4: Add the Spinner Component to the Screen

Just drag the Spinner component from the Components panel and drop it onto the screen where you want it to appear. Easy peasy.

Step 5: Configure Spinner Settings

Once you've got the Spinner on your screen, click on it. This will open up the properties panel on the right side. Here, you can tweak settings like size, color, and when it should be visible.

Step 6: Set Visibility Conditions

In the settings options for the Spinner, you'll find a section for visibility conditions. Set these up to decide when the spinner should show up. Usually, it's for things like loading data or performing some action.

Step 7: Integrate with Actions

If your spinner is supposed to indicate a loading state during an action like a database query or API call, make sure its visibility matches the timing of that action. For instance, have it appear when a button is clicked and disappear once the data is loaded.

Step 8: Test the App

Use Adalo's preview function to test your app. Check to see if the spinner shows up and disappears correctly based on the conditions and actions you've set.

Step 9: Adjust as Necessary

After testing, go back to the Adalo editor and make any tweaks needed to the spinner's size, color, or visibility conditions to make sure it fits perfectly with your app's design and functionality.
