We have a form that is used for display purposes and does not require any user intervention other than closing it. I have a timer that fires off after the form is loaded to run a process that basically calls a stored proc that does some stuff on the database. I would like to have the activity indicator to be active while this is happening.
In my constructor I have the following:
ultraActivityIndicator1.AnimationEnabled = true; ultraActivityIndicator1.AnimationSpeed = 20;
I tried putting the code in the timer_tick event like this:
void myTimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e) { myTimer.Enabled = false; ultraActivityIndicator1.Start(true); ComputeServices(); ultraActivityIndicator1.Stop(); ultraActivityIndicator1.Visible = false; InitFormStuff(); }
However the indicator doesnt do anything... how do I get this to work?
thanks!
