Just to make sure, is this still a draft or are you looking for a review already? |

@andycwilliams this is still a draft, for sure. I should have just pinged you instead of requesting a review. |

Rather than it being condition within the FormSection component, I think it should be wrapping it as part of a ternary:
{ processing ? <LoadingAnimation /> : <FormSection>modal content here</FormSection> }

So it would fully replace all of the content with the animation?
I prefer to stay with the Figma design. I think it looks a bit nicer and is less jarring than taking over the whole modal.

The previous animation that's dangling at the bottom of the modal does not seem any better either. Might want to use a different kind of animation if not the full content

Maybe we could look at a solution where the size of the modal does not change, which is jarring, and the loading animation displays over top of the modal with the content greyed out or removed. I don't mind the content being removed as long as the size of the modal doesn't change.

We could try that. Or else the animation could temporarily replace one of the buttons (while retaining the size). Maybe "Upload File".
Thinking farther ahead, in #642 I mention possibly breaking down this whole process into several steps. That may or may not affect what we decide here.

@andycwilliams @leekahung this is the clip I tried to post. I'm not sure why it wasn't working before.

Ah, well that's pretty different! I'll take a closer look tomorrow.

I like this one 👍

I don't know why, but it's still displaying the way it does in my screenshot. It's not appearing as an overlay in either desktop or mobile modes even after pulling the latest version of the branch.

@andycwilliams Apologies - I did not push the changes I made to the code until just now.

Shouldn't loadingItem="file name" still be loadingItem={file.name}?

While this works for this animation, it consequently affects other uses of this animation as well, such as when loading contacts or documents.
The box is now gray rather than white. Not a huge deal or anything, just an unintended side effect.
Best practice would be to carve out an exception for this. However, I'd like to do #643, which would refactor animations a tad anyway.

Any updates @russfraze? |
This PR:
Resolves #(654)
Screenshots (if applicable):
Add any screenshots/videos here.
Additional Context (optional):
I've implemented this and you can see the loading animation for a split second when uploading a document. I uploaded a 12MB image and it still only takes a split second. I'm wondering if that is because I am using the local pod server?
I think this loading animation makes for a better user experience if the file is large enough to take a couple of seconds, for sure.
Future Steps/PRs Needed to Finish This Work (optional):
This needs further styling to match the Figma file.
Issues needing discussion/feedback (optional):
Currently, the loadingAnimation component delivers an indeterminant progress bar which is fine, but the Figma file shows a determinate progress bar with a percentage of the upload progress. Let me know if we intend to have a determinate progress bar here and I can look into how to make that work.
