Loader

A loader informs users about performing a lengthy operation.

When to use

Follow the rules for progress indicators.

The loader form and sizes are the same in all themes. Use the default 16x16 loader in all cases.

JLabel label = new JLabel("Loading...", new AnimatedIcon.Default(), SwingConstants.LEFT)

A loader may have a label if the process is long and the loader is shown in an empty area. In this case, use a progress text as the label:

Remove the loader as soon as the process completes.

Inside a field
`ExpandableTextField textField = new ExpandableTextField(); textField.addExtension(Extension.create(new AnimatedIcon.Default(),null, null));`
In a corner
Next to an item
Before a progress text
