loading of widgets - smitchell6879 - 2017-02-22
So I have one widget that takes about 4 seconds to load ... its not that bad but it annoys me... I tried visible tag so it is only visible once it is filled but I am guessing that it is only looked at once because it will not load with just that and so I added Container($PARAM[list_id]).IsUpdating as a visible tag and now you see the extra part but before it is loaded as I was with out any visible tag... so how can I hid it but it still load once it is filled?
Not Sure if I am doing it 100% right but I can live with it now.

Yeah the container needs to be visible to load.
I think allowhiddenfocus usually works as a workaround --
Code:
<visible allowhiddenfocus="true">!Container($PARAM[list_id]).IsUpdating</visible>Alternatively, you could use a conditional animation fade
Code:
<animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="200" condition="!Container($PARAM[list_id]).IsUpdating">Conditional</animation>
