Types in JavaScript Spinner control

30 Mar 2023 / 2 minutes to read

By default, the Spinner is loaded in the applicable Essential JS 2 component based on the theme imported into the page. Based on the theme, the type is set to the Spinner. The available types are:

Material
Fabric
Bootstrap

You can change the Essential JS 2 component spinner type by passing the type of the spinner as parameter to the setSpinner method like as below.

// Specify the type of the Spinner to be displayed

setSpinner({ type: 'Bootstrap'});

After Essential JS 2 component creation only, you can change the Essential JS 2 component spinner type.
