Hi,
I have a counter for development just to show that the ESP32 is running and I am getting comms to the web app. It also it shows the web page is responding.
I was going to delete it later but then I thought it would look good if I could put a small icon in the corner just going round and round so I know all is good. I could just have the counter but that is boring.
There is nothing like this so I wondered if I could use a gauge to show 360 degrees and have the count running 0-359 so the needle would just rotate. but that is fixed so will not work.
I think it would be a good addition to show timers etc.
I did think of using a 7 segment display with the segments doing a figure of eight but that would be a lot of code for just a visual effect.
Regards,
Bob

Re: Web app spinner
The 7-segment display is fairly easy to implement too - if you can write the data to the display register.
Just need to calculate a 'character set' (for example for a rotating star) and then output at intervals.
For real fireworks - there is the 16 segment display
(Though the one I did didn't work in simulation)

Re: Web app spinner
I could not find that, probably reserved for the elitethere is the 16 segment display
Also there was no example in the web app help but there is for the app developer. Can I assume they are controlled the same and just an oversight.
