Display spinning icon while some search method in progress ?
In unity I worked a game project and I want to UI display loading icon(like spinning circle) while my search method(it returns bool value by the way) is working which takes time about 4-5 seconds. how must be the right algoritm ? I tried coroutine but couldn't integrate it. if someone give example, link or any suggestion I appericated. thanks in advance...
public class myclass : MonoBehaviour { public bool ismethodsearching; void Start() { ismethodsearching = false; }
void Update()
{
if (ismethodsearching)
{
gameObject.GetComponent<Transform>().Rotate(new Vector3(1,0,0));
}
}
//main duty of this method find whether word is in list or not
//and also with a global value "ismethodsearching" I want to manage image
//rotation
bool searchmethod(string[] wordlist, string targetword)
{
ismethodsearching = true;
foreach(word in wordlist)
{
//some other operations
if (targetword == wordlist)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
ismethodsearching = false;
}
void Startsearchmethod()//when clicked button this method will be called
{
if(searchmethod)
{
do something ;
}
}
}
