I'm working on a Windows Phone App. I have a very performance intensive method which takes several seconds until the operation is done.
When the method is called I want to show an animated loading symbol which is defined in the xaml of my view. When the operation is finished it should disappear. I set the loading symbol to visible in the first line of this method.In the last line I set the visibility to collapsed.
The problem is that at first the whole code behind will be executed. Unfortunately nothing is to be seen, because the the visibiliy is set to visible after the code behind operations are executed and in the same moment its set to collapsed.
Has anybody an idea how to solve this problem? Thanks so much in advance.
