How Can I Show the User an Advanced Search is in Progress?

Need help Database
1

I have a Repeating Group that shows all records from my database.

The user can use a text input to perform a search on the displayed rows, this is performed on the front-end to keep down WUs, using an Advanced Search. Naturally, this takes a little time.

How can I show the user the search is in progress? :is loading only works on page load, it doesn’t trigger again for the Advanced Search.

Any ideas?

Indeed, I don’t think it’s possible. I used to use Floppy for this type of stuff.

I think when you do an advanced search on your entire db, it will pull the entire db to the client, then execute the search. This can be slow and quite costly. Might be worthwhile to check some of the work of @petter on satellite data types.
