What's the document loader used on Youtube? - reactjs

I want to use a loader such as the one on Youtube before the content is loaded. On youtube, every piece of content uses a light gray color loader before rendering the actual content. It is made of squares and circles to simulate the actual content about to be rendered.
Do you know what it is ? Surprisingly, I couldn't find it neither on material-ui nor via a google search.

ok, I found the solution to my problem.
What I was looking for is called "placeholder UI", or "skeleton screen".
In my case, I want to use it with ReactJS. Semantic UI React has the placeholder part of the library :
https://react.semantic-ui.com/elements/placeholder/#content-line
Material-UI, and other styling libraries do not. There are however external packages for that, such as :
https://github.com/buildo/react-placeholder
https://github.com/danilowoz/react-content-loader
https://github.com/dvtng/react-loading-skeleton
It's also possible to implement skeleton screens oneself using a combination of html, svg and css.

Ant Design Layout Component

I have a very basic implementation of ant design in a react project. I used create-react-app and have went through the suggested steps detailed in the antd documentation.
The problem i have is resizing the Content section of the Layout component. Currently, even though my Dragger component is wrapped within Content component, it is appearing below it. The Content component is represented by the Grey area on the screen. Attempts at resizing it using styling have not yielded desired results.
Here is the code pen. Im simply trying to ensure that the Upload box is located within the Content section, and not below it.
Any help would be awesome!
You've wrapped the Dragger component in a div that is absolutely positioned in the center of the body, so it's disregarding the regular content flow. If you remove that inline CSS it will behave as you'd expect.

Place Image above another image dynamically in ReactNative App

I have an iOS app in which, we take user pics, and then allowed them to put some random custom images above the pics.
While placing these custom pics above real image, they can rotate, scale these custom image. ( See this StickerViewIOS )
Now I am looking for exact same solution while making ReactNative.
Tried lot of Googling but no results found.
Just want to ask community if any of the ReactNative component available for the same.
Thanks,
There's no rotation support, but I did something similar for an app I made for Chain React.
Here's the image component that supports gestures: https://github.com/cball/ChainReactPhotobomb/blob/master/App/Components/TransformableImage.js
To overlay them on top, just use the ImageBackground Component

svg sprite load with webpack and react

Hi I am using svg sprite I created using icons8 website for all my website icons, and the icons are working but it seems that the website loads them more than once per page (if i open the network tab i can see it loaded twice or more). I have been looking for a solution for a while now and I cant seem to find the cause of this.
I work with react so I have a component for Icon which uses the tag with xlinkHref attribute.
did anyone encounter such behavior? if yes what would be the best way to approach a solution?

Custom marker with Angular Google Maps

I am using the Angular Google maps directive to show maps on my webpage. Currently my markers are created using SVG but this is slow as I have to pass my information into a function that creates an SVG in memory to pass to the Google Icon. So I want to replace it with a custom HTML marker which will hopefully be less code and can leverage CSS classes for lots of the heavy lifting.
Unfortunately this isn't available as standard within the Angular Google Maps markers (unless I havent seen it?!)
I found a tutorial on how to do this with Overlays but I need clustering to work with my icons.
How can I do this? Without rewriting everything from scratch? Ideally I'd like to leverage as much of the existing angular-google-maps code as possible
The way I ended up doing this was to put in rich HTML into the labelContent property, setting a class on it via labelClass and then setting the icon to be transparent (https://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/transparent.png)
This way the actual icon is invisible but you can create rich HTML / CSS markers through the label. And this doesnt break functionality with the clusterer

How do you get ActionBar from SocialBoo theme to show up in your GUI?

Ok. Starting over with this. I see that the SocialBoo theme has something similar in what I want to achieve. If I find that I can work and improve. I Added a new socialboo theme and created blank GUI. Assumed it would be a Commandbehavior but that didnt do the trick, so did adding tabs. Seems like those components are not for that specific bar... However did notice another issue.
How do I get the social actionbar as displayed in the socialboo theme? (Screen shot). Assuming those images etc are part of the default theme, right.
Also, If I create a TouchCommand = bar, title or native. It displays fine in Gingerbread but not ICS. DO you know why is that? (screen shot)
Thanks, in advance.
Those images aren't a part of the theme, they are a part of the specific demo. If you add a Tabs component to the center of the border layout UI you will get thee tabs where the "icon" property will allow you to customize the unselected icon and you can customize the selected icon as well. You can see the full source/resource file of the social boo demo in the docs and demos zip in the download section.
Generally customizing commands is a bit complex because of platform specific constraints, when running on an Actual Android 4 device we use the native ActionBar by default to provide the experience Android users are used to. This is hard for us to simulate so you will only see this properly in the device build. I suggest not relying on commands, it seems that what you are trying to achieve is easily doable with tabs and its possible that's why you had difficulties in your other question.
