Indicator Types

## Prerequisites:

.Net Framework 4.8+

.Net Core6+

## How to use: 1. Install the package via [NuGet](https://www.nuget.org/packages/BusyIndicators):

Install-Package BusyIndicators

> **Note** > NuGet address has changed.
2. Add the following resource to App.xaml:

<Application.Resources>
     <ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/BusyIndicator;component/Theme/Default.xaml"/>
</Application.Resources>

3. Add a reference to the library:

xmlns:busyIndicator="https://github.com/moh3ngolshani/BusyIndicator"

4. Create a BusyMask on top of your main view:

<busyIndicator:BusyMask x:Name="BusyIndicator" 
                        IsBusy="False" 
                        IndicatorType="Dashes" 
                        BusyContent="Please wait..." 
                        BusyContentMargin="0,20,0,0" 
                        IsBusyAtStartup="False" >
         
         
          <... MAIN VIEW GOES HERE... >
         
         
</busyIndicator:BusyMask>

5. Bind or Set the `IsBusy` property. ### How to change indicator sizes: You can now customize the indicator sizes: * Add a reference to the mscorlib assembly:

xmlns:sys="clr-namespace:System;assembly=mscorlib"

* Override the `IndicatorScaleX` & `IndicatorScaleY` properties:

<Window.Resources>
    <sys:Double x:Key="IndicatorScaleX" >2</sys:Double>
    <sys:Double x:Key="IndicatorScaleY" >2</sys:Double>
</Window.Resources>

### How to change indicator colors: Override the `IndicatorForeground` & `IndicatorBackground` properties:

<Window.Resources>
    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="IndicatorForeground" Color="Orange" />
    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="IndicatorBackground" Color="WhiteSmoke" />
</Window.Resources>

You can also use gradients:

<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="IndicatorForeground" StartPoint="0.5,0" EndPoint="0.5,1">
    <GradientStop Offset="1" Color="#eaafc8" />
    <GradientStop Offset="0" Color="#654ea3" />
</LinearGradientBrush>

#### Hint: >Not all indicators have background, so changing the `IndicatorBackground` may not affect all indicators. ## If you like this, feel free to show your support!
