Hi everybody.

Is it possible to draw standard BB spinner? How could I do this?

I tried to draw animated gif, but it doesn't work correct (no animation).

Thanks,

Maksym.

animation is not supported by default.

here is a workaround that shows how to display an animated gif:

Thank you

So is not possible to invoke the "clock/spinner" that Blackberry has by default?

 I've seen a single "clock" animation when GC works, and I would like also to use it, instead of me drawing a gif and creating another thread in my app.

Thanks,

You realize that the spinner itself is likely just that -- an animated gif on a separate Thread. It's just created in very sepcific cases. I don't believe there's an API which allows you directly invoke it.
