Good afternoon,
I wasn't sure if this question belongs in the WaitingBar thread or RadLayoutControl, but here is the problem.
I have a standard C# UserControl, with a RadLayoutControl that is docked to the parent(UserControl). The layoutcontrol has several items in it and that part works well. What I would *like* to be able to do is on creation of the user control, have a waiting bar of the spin variety show over the LayoutControl until a few items that need to retrieve data are ready to be shown. The smart tag will let me assign the WaitingBar.AssociatedControl to the RadLayoutControl, but if I call the waitBar.StartWaiting(), I can't see the bar.
I can seem to successfully have the WaitingBar appear over any of the components within the LayoutControl, but I would really like it to go over the entire LayoutControl if possible.
I hope that makes sense, and thanks for any help you might have.
Mike

Hello Michael,
Following the provided information I created a sample project. I can suggest you to add a RadPanel and dock the RadLayoutControl within it. Then assign the WaitingBar.AssociatedControl to the RadPanel. Thus, when you call radWaitingBar1.StartWaiting() you should see the waiting bar over the layout control as demonstrated below:
I attached my project to this thread for your reference. Could you please refer to it and see how it works.
I hope this helps. Should you have other questions do not hesitate to ask.

I should have thought about adding the extra panel. Thanks I'll try that but I'm sure it will work.
