Using Waiter on Tabpanel

[AnuradhaSurendra]

Hi, I am new to using Waiter and I am wonder how to use it to block all elements on a tabpanel. I have tried the following:

    waiter_show( id="tabA"
      html = spin_fading_circles() # use a spinner
    )

But that does not work.

We can't do that because tab ids are dynamically generated but we can wrap the tab in a div, assign it an id and use that instead.

navbarPage(
  "page",
  tabPanel(
    "first",
    div(
      id = "first", 
      ...,
      style = "min-height:100vh" # optional but may make it look nicer
    )
  )
)

Then use

waiter_show( 
  id="first"
)

John, thank you. This worked perfectly!
