Is there anyway to show a native indicator before loading the large sprite?

I am trying to load a large sprite which leads to around 1 second lag before the sprite shows up.

Is there anyway to show a native indicator before loading the large sprite? I am currently using  display.newSprite  method to generate the animation.

Many Thanks

Or you could make your own that fits better with your theme, if you have on :slight_smile:

Then again, a 1 sec is perhaps on the low side to pop an indicator

No way of preloading instead?

What are the dimensions of the image sheet you are loading and on what device is it taking this long? We may be able to give suggestions to speed that up.
