Inner Loading     

The QInnerLoading component allows you to add a progress animation within a component. Much like the Loading feature, it’s purpose is to offer visual confirmation to the user that some process is happening in the background, which takes an excessive amount of time. QInnerLoading will add an opaque overlay over the delayed element along with a Spinner.

Note
In order for the spinner to be properly placed in the center of the element you want the loading display to show over, that element must have the relative-position CSS class declared.

Note
QInnerLoading must be the last element inside it’s parent so it can appear on top of the other content

Installation

Edit /quasar.conf.js:

framework: {
  components: [
  'QInnerLoading',

  //... if using custom spinner, add it too
  //whatever that is
  'QSpinnerGears'
  ]
}

Basic Usage

<div class="row justify-center" style="margin-top: 40px">
  <q-card style="width: 288px; height: 262px;" color="grey-2" class="text-dark relative-position">
    <q-card-title>
      Lorem Ipsum
    </q-card-title>
    <q-card-main>
      <q-transition
        appear
        enter="fadeIn"
        leave="fadeOut"
      >
        <div v-show="showSimulatedReturnData">
          Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Praesent vel magna eu risus laoreet tristique. Nulla ut fermentum elit, nec consequat augue. Morbi et dolor nec metus tincidunt pellentesque. Nullam non semper ante. Fusce pellentesque sagittis felis quis porta. Aenean condimentum neque sed erat suscipit malesuada. Nulla eget rhoncus enim. Duis dictum interdum eros.
        </div>
      </q-transition>
    </q-card-main>

    <!--
      Place QInnerLoading as the last child element.
      This is important for it to be displayed on top of the other content.
    -->
    <q-inner-loading :visible="visible">
      <q-spinner-gears size="50px" color="primary"></q-spinner-gears>
    </q-inner-loading>
  </q-card>
</div>

Use v-show or v-if and the Inner Loading component’s :visible prop to toggle between the animation and your content.

Vue Properties

Note
If you add your own spinner, use the spinner’s own size and color prop to change the size and color.

To change the spinner, you can add your own as a child of QInnerLoading component. The below code would add a teal-variation gear spinner with the size of 50 pixels.

<q-inner-loading :visible="visible">
  <q-spinner-gears size="50px" color="teal-4" />
</q-inner-loading>

In most cases, you’ll probably want to add your own spinner, color and size. For more information on spinner control, please refer to the Spinner section of the docs.
