I'm working on a silverlight app. When the app loads it starts a complicated layout procedure that takes about 10 seconds to
- Load the Dataset via web service
- Create objects
- Place objects
- Download photos
- Connect objects
I am unable to show the user any sort of progress indicator that all this is happening. With the exception of step 1 all of the steps seem to be happening on the visual thread. Does anyone have any idea how to split the thread so I can give the user some indication of what is happening?
Thanks ~Steve
