JsonView w/LoadMask

[brant]

It would be nice to have the JsonView support the same loading mask feature as is in the grid.

You can mask view's container and (I think) you can bind it to view's store. I haven't tested this binding but I use container masking quite frequently and it works.

I was requesting it for look and functionality consistency. All I added to the source to get it to work was in the JsonView I added:


loadMask : false,

and in the load function:


if(this.loadMask){ if( this.loadMask.destroy ) { this.loadMask.destroy(); } this.loadMask = new Ext.LoadMask(this.el); }


The only thing I didn't add was a final clean up call to this.loadMask.destroy(); Quick hack.

Yep, I vote for it.

I haven't meant it as you sholdn't want it but as a workaround until it's available. ;)

JsonView uses an UpdateManager. LoadMask already works with UpdateManager, e.g:

new Ext.LoadMask('your-view-el');

So how about on a View? I tried new Ext.LoadMask(myView) where myView = new Ext.View(....). And it doesn't seem to work.

[jack.slocum]

new Ext.LoadMask('your-view-el');

That could also be myView.el if you don't know your View's id:

new Ext.LoadMask(myView.el);
