Silverlight splash screen

I have a SL app with WCF to which I would like to add a splash screen to display during the WCF call finishes. How would I go about doing this? Been googling without success. Currently my splash screen shows while the package is loading but the app shows while waiting for WCF.

Solution

  • One of the variant is to show ChildWindow during WCF call.

    Another: BusyIndicator from Silverlight Toolkit.
