# vdl-spinner

Adds an spinner element to the view. This will be styled exactly like the built-in loading and execution overlay spinners within Insight. It will be positioned inline, so it is up to you to provide the container layout and a separate message element for the spinner.

### Example

    <!-- Inserts spinner with custom message that aligns with built-in view loading spinner -->
    <vdl-section layout="fluid">
      <vdl-row>
        <vdl-column>
          <style>
            .custom-spinner { flex-direction: column; padding-top: 80px; padding-right: 15px; width: 100%; align-content: center; text-align: center; }
          </style>
          <vdl-container class="custom-spinner">
            <vdl-spinner></vdl-spinner>
            <div vdl-text="Custom wait message"></div>
          </vdl-container>
        </vdl-column>
