Hi, maybe this is a late night issue, but I cannot solve this puzzle by myself. I’ve got a time consuming calculation that takes about 4 secs. I’d want to use the $ionicLoading service to show a spinner during this calculations, but I can’t make this work. I have a code like this:
$scope.showSpinner(); // simple $ionicLoading.show({..}); $scope.extensiveCalculations(); // takes about 4 secs
If I use the above code the $ionicLoading doesn’t even show.
If I call the calculation after some timeout (e.g. 300ms) then the $ionicLoading is visible, starts to spin but immediately stops when the calculation begins.
$scope.showSpinner(); $timeout(function() { ....$scope.extensiveCalculations(); // long calculations }, 300);
Could you please give me a hint how to put the calculation into background so that the spinner spins freely until the job is done? I can make it work with the cordova plugin for spinnderdialog, but I don’t want to use it in that case.
Cheers,
Rafal
