- Provide an expression for
ng-show
in the properties panel. It could be a variable that returnstrue
orfalse
. - To vertically and horizontally center the spinner do the following:
- Add a
centered-spinner
class toClass
in the properties panel. - Create new CSS by going to
CREATE NEW > CSS > Create CSS
. - Add the following code to create the CSS file:
- Add a
.centered-spinner { width: 28px; height: 28px; position: absolute; top: 50%; left: 50%; margin-top: -14px; margin-left: -14px; } .scroll { height:100%; }
