Description

A Gnome::Gtk4::Spinner widget displays an icon-size spinning animation.

It is often used as an alternative to a Gnome::Gtk4::ProgressBar for displaying indefinite activity, instead of actual progress.

To start the animation, use .start(), to stop it use .stop().

CSS nodes

Gnome::Gtk4::Spinner has a single CSS node with the name spinner. When the animation is active, the :checked pseudoclass is added to this node.
