Show Spinner on Grid when Exporting in JavaScript (ES5) Grid control

17 Sep 2021 / 2 minutes to read

You can show/ hide spinner component while exporting the grid using showSpinner/ hideSpinner methods. You can use toolbarClick event to show spinner before exporting and hide a spinner in the pdfExportComplete or excelExportComplete event after the exporting.

In the toolbarClick event, based on the parameter args.item.id as Grid_pdfexport or Grid_excelexport we can call the showSpinner method from grid instance.

In the pdfExportComplete or excelExportComplete event, We can call the hideSpinner method.

In the below demo, we have rendered the default spinner component when exporting the grid.
