Hi Guys,
is there a reason IActionExecutorService is internal? i am trying to build some custom navigation dashbaord - where i generate a href links - and in the onclick event i execute the ShowNavigationItemAction -> for this i want the loading indicator to be shown - so i added the xaf-action css class - but to hide the loading indicator it seems i need to use the IActionExecutorService ?
Thank you for the clarification, Martin. You can use the Release method of the ILoadingIndicatorProvider service to hide the loading panel. This service is public.
C#@inject DevExpress.ExpressApp.Blazor.Services.ILoadingIndicatorProvider loadingIndicatorProvider;
private void ExecuteNavigationClick(DemoModel item) {
var blazorApplication = (BlazorApplication)this.Application;
var controller = blazorApplication.MainWindow.GetController<ShowNavigationItemController>();
Action action = () => controller.ShowNavigationItemAction.DoExecute(controller.FindNavigationItemByViewShortcut(new ViewShortcut(item.NavigationItem.View.Id, null)));
action.Invoke();
loadingIndicatorProvider.Release("Navigation Done");
}
For more information about the loading panel, refer to the following help topic: Loading Panels / Splash Forms (ASP.NET Core Blazor).
Thank you Gosha - after further studying the source code i already changed that today :) anyway - wouldnt it be cleaner to use the # IActionExecutorService for this - as it also handles exceptions for example?
Yes, using IActionExecutorService is more convenient in this case. I believe that we will also implement a public API for such tasks in the future.

Hi Martin,
As far as I understand, you with to execute custom code when an Action in the Navigation Control is clicked (similar as you do with the SetClientScript method in XAF Web). Currently, XAF Blazor does not support this. I'll discuss this case with my team to check what solution we can suggest for now.
Meanwhile, would you please send me a sample project to illustrate your task in action?
Hi Gosha,
no - i dont want to customize the Navigation Control. I try to build some kind of "quick navigation" dashboard - i have a custom razor component - where i generate a href links
Snippet
<a href="#" class="xaf-action" @onclick="() => ExecuteNavigationClick(item)" @onclick:preventDefault> <XafImage ImageName="@item.NavigationItem.ImageName" Size="48" CssClass="item-icon" /> <div class="item-label">@item.NavigationItem.Caption</div> </a>the a href i have decorated with the xaf-action css class - so the loading indicator is automaticly shown. but in the ExecuteNavigationClick - i am executing the ShowNavigationItemAction - which should hide the loading indicator after it has executed. so far i found from source code that you use the # IActionExecutorService for this. i made a quick and dirty example - see attached - simply open an employee detailview to see the component!
