Progress View on iCarrousel

Hi All, I am wondering where I should place: [self showProgress]; in the BuzzCarrousel to display a spinner while the tiles are loading. I have noticed that if I have a lit of menu items, it can take a few seconds to generate the carrousel, so the spinner would be a nice addition to the User Experience. Jake

that would be nice. i just cheated and changed the word 'One' that appears so the screen doesnt crash until the screen loads fully, to 'Loading...' So the word Loading.... appears in the middle of the screen until items load fully

I would put the [self showProgress]; in the did init if statement as once its loaded it won't refresh and show every time. I would put the [self hideProgress]; in the layout method under [acarousel reload]; Have an experiment, I will add this to teh feature for the upcoming release

The progress view needs an iOS 7 makeover. It obscures underlying content such as Maps. Personally, I don't like the BuzzTouch Progress View. Luckily, it can be sidestepped.
